Vote for B but still remember it will be retired: Azure Automation State Configuration will be retired on September 30, 2027, please transition to Azure Machine Configuration by that date. For more information, see the blog post announcement. The Azure Machine Configuration service combines features of DSC Extension, Azure Automation State Configuration, and the most commonly requested features from customer feedback. Azure Machine Configuration also includes hybrid machine support through Arc-enabled servers.

You should make use of Azure Automation State Configuration. Azure Automation State Configuration allows for defining and enforcing the desired state of virtual machines, ensuring that Windows features are configured correctly upon provisioning. Azure DevOps is a continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) platform, which focuses on automating software delivery processes rather than managing VM configurations. Network security groups (NSGs) are used to control network traffic to/from Azure resources and wouldn't directly address the task of managing Windows features on VMs. Azure Blueprints provide a way to package templates, policies, role assignments, and resource groups into a single blueprint, but they do not specifically address VM configuration management like Azure Automation State Configuration does. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/automation/automation-dsc-getting-started
