Workspace Identity is a great addition, but I think UAMI could complement it rather than replace it.
Some advantages of UAMI would be:
- A single identity could be shared across multiple workspaces.
- An identity could be scoped more narrowly than a workspace, for example to a specific item or even a single folder within a Lakehouse.
- Greater flexibility overall, since the scope could be either broader or narrower than a Workspace Identity.
- Similar to how SPN provides more flexibility than WI today.
- Benefit of UAMI over SPN: no credentials to handle.
It would basically provide the same flexibility as an SPN, just without the credentials.
