I am creating a new data platform in Azure where I would need to create VMSS for CI/CD, SHIR for ADF , Power BI Data Gateway etc in the management subscription(Landing Zone) which are windows server 2022 servers. The client has an existing AD setup and is using Pass Through Authentication(primary) and Password hash(backup) to sync identities onto cloud. What are the options available for me to join these VM to domain and what are the caveats for each?

1)Azure AD Join

2)Azure Hybrid Join

3)Domain Join

How do I configure Azure Hybrid Join for the VM from Azure and also what are the prerequisites for domain join/Hybrid Join given we have express route setup(which ports to be opened to DC?). Also I am using Private DNS resolver and not custom DNS at Vnet level. Would that be an issue for me to connect to the domain controllers? Also there would be a PAM tool that would manage access to these VM's. What would be the recommendations for this scenario?
