What would you like to see covered?

So #Azure experts help me answer which Azure services don’t support multi tenant (B2B entra auth) natively. Please comment below.

I’ll start:

Any thoughts on where? Just the main landing page for ALZ perhaps?

The image is a diagram titled "Landing Zone Terminology" showing Azure Landing Zones, Platform Landing Zones, and Application Landing Zones. It uses color-coded boxes and icons for services like virtual networks, storage accounts, and databases.

Question to the #ALZ community, would this diagram be useful in the MS Learn CAF Ready docs? If so where?

An image showing two Polaroid-style photos side by side with a plus sign between them. The left photo features a cloud icon and the AVM logo, while the right photo displays the Azure NetApp logo. Below these photos, there is text that reads: "Introducing Our New Terraform ANF AVM Module: avm-res-netapp-netappaccount."

A screenshot of a tip box from a ALZ CAF docs page saying: User Assigned Managed Identites, in public preview, can now support multitenant scenarios by configuring a trust between itself and an Entra ID multitenant application. See more information on configuring this in Configure an application to trust a managed identity (preview).

Thoughts on deployment stacks changing this though? Initial testing seems good from what I’ve played with 🤷‍♂️
