Hi Prashant Salvi,

Thanks for posting here!

As per your description what I understand is you have an on premise AD and would like to have a replica of the same on cloud (Azure). If this is what you want to accomplish then the answer is YES.

You can refer to http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/jj156090.aspx for guidance and http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/virtual-networks-install-replica-active-directory-domain-controller/ for steps.

Hope this helps!

Best Regards

Sadiqh Ahmed

You need to provide more information.  Are you talking about on-prem AD or Azure?

Also, what do you mean by "one machine's ADDS"?

Greetings!

You might want to ask this on the Directory Services Forum for better expert coverage on on-prem AD.

Thank you,

Arvind
