Share Drive with user permissions between Azure Virtual Machines

I am currently looking into mapping multiple VMs in Azure with a local redundant storage account as a shared drive. So far, this is not the problem.



What I know and want until this point is explained here:



https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/files/storage-how-to-create-file-share



https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/files/storage-how-to-use-files-windows



But now I am using an on-premise AD where those machines are connected and joined into a domain. When a user logs in I would like to have that the mapped drive of the storage account always only shows the files that belong to that user. Currently I would understand that any user using the mapped drive would be able to see files of all user.



Can I achieve the requirement above with storage accounts and Azure VMs (with windows 10 / W Server 2016 at least)? If not is there a approach where I could achieve this without too much overload?

          • That means I do not map the storage account directly to the OS in the VM, but instead I use Azure file share, that syncs and connects both resources?
