Azure.Identity library uses MSAL and Azure.Services.AppAuthentication library uses ADAL.
MSAL provides multiple benefits over ADAL including incremental consent, richer single sign-on experiences, support for personal Microsoft accounts, use of standards-based protocols, and so on.
So, We recommend using Azure.Identity library since it uses MSAL.
