Malthe Borch commented on NIFI-7677:
------------------------------------
Why not 1.5 series – it does not break anything from the user perspective.
Meanwhile, Microsoft has done this 2.x to 12.x upgrade across the board on all
platforms – I think it would be good for NiFi to make the transition sooner
rather than later unless there are very compelling arguments for holding back.
> Upgrade Azure Storage API to latest (v12) to support extra SPP

> Key: NIFI-7677
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-7677
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Extensions
> Affects Versions: 1.11.4
> Reporter: Stijn IJzermans
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: azure, cloud, encryption, sensitive
> Time Spent: 3h 50m

> To enable support for extra types of SPP (service principal providers) when
> connecting to storage, we need to upgrade the Azure storage dependencies.
> This is required for the improvement referred in NIFI-6615 and related to
> epic NIFI-5481.
> From version 12 onwards, the Azure storage SDK's support the identity
> objects, and hence we open up support for new types of authentication such as:
> * ManagedIdentityCredential
> * EnvironmentCredential
> * ClientSecretCredential
> * ClientCertificateCredential
> (Referred here:
> [https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/java/api/overview/azure/identity-readme?view=azure-java-stable)]
