 [Microsoft Entra ID](/entra/fundamentals/whatis) is a cloud-based identity and access management service. Identity-based connections allow Durable Functions, a feature of Azure Functions, to make authorized requests against Microsoft Entra-protected resources, such as an Azure Storage account, without using manually managed secrets. When Durable Functions uses the default Azure storage provider, it must authenticate against an Azure storage account.

 Durable Functions supports several [storage providers](durable-functions-storage-providers.md), also known as _back ends_, for storing orchestration and entity runtime state. By default, new projects are configured to use the [Azure Storage provider](durable-functions-storage-providers.md#azure-storage). In this quickstart, you configure a Durable Functions app to use the [Microsoft SQL Server (MSSQL) storage provider](durable-functions-storage-providers.md#mssql).
