Summary

I recently added a PR to add workload identity to Azure. I built an mlflow plugin that uses it to give a mlflow pod access to an azure blob storage bucket with minimal credential setup.

Start by reviewing the linked Azure Terraform example in nebari-mlflow-plugin's template/azure/main.tf and the Azure DefaultAzureCredential documentation.
