Identity Manager 9.0 LTS - Cloud Access Governance Administration Guide

Managing Azure Cloud System

One Identity Manager CIM module for Azure Cloud System module provides the ability to connect to Azure Tenant and synchronize Azure objects to One Identity Manager. Identity and Access Governance processes such as attesting, IT Shop, or report subscriptions can be used for Azure Tenant. The integration ensures a strong governance. At present, this is a read-only module.

NOTE: Provisioning of Azure Objects from One Identity Manager to Azure Cloud System is currently not supported.

Architecture overview

To access Azure Tenant data, the SCIM connector is installed on a synchronization server. The synchronization server ensures that the data is compared between the One Identity Manager database and Azure tenant. The SCIM connector uses the Starling Connect Azure Infrastructure Connector to synchronize the Azure objects to One Identity Manager. The Starling Connect Connector uses the Microsoft Azure REST API and accesses the Azure objects.
