While there’s no denying the rapid pace at which organizations are moving their workloads to the cloud, many businesses, and corporations are still a mixture of on-premises and cloud applications. Regardless of where an application is hosted, users expect and require easy access. As such, there’s need to have a single identity across these various applications.
Microsoft’s identity solutions span on-premises and cloud-based capabilities. These solutions create a common identity for authentication and authorization to all resources, regardless of location. We call this hybrid identity.
Hybrid identity is accomplished through provisioning and synchronization.
- Inter-directory provisioning is provisioning an identity between two different directory services systems. For a hybrid environment, the most common scenario for inter-directory provisioning is when a user already in Active Directory is provisioned into Microsoft Entra ID.
- Synchronization is responsible for making sure identity information for your on-premises users and groups is matching the cloud.
