Limitless connectivity for hybrid IT landscapes

The Azure Active Directory Connector offered by Microsoft only has a limited range of functions (all-in) for synchronizing your identity data to Microsoft Azure. The solution developed by OCG includes a considerably extended scope of possible configurations (selective-in). This makes it obsolete to clean up your identity data before deploying Microsoft Azure Active Directory or Office 365. The OCG Cloud Management Agent enables fast and flexible provisioning of identities and their authorizations with Microsoft Identity Manager systems such as MIM 2016 or FIM 2010 for the cloud.

The OCG Cloud Management Agent offers:

• Automated Microsoft Azure cloud provisioning
• Flexibility and control over user authorizations
• Automated Office365 license assignment for users
• Accelerated deployment in Microsoft Azure
• Single Sign-On (SSO) with AD FS 2.0/3.0

The OCG Cloud Management Agent can thus implement the following:

The OCG Cloud Management Agent in conjunction with the Microsoft Identity Manager makes it possible to provision and manage selected identities from one or more identity stores (such as Windows Server Active Directory) in Microsoft Azure Active Directory / Office 365.

Precise

Based on predefined guidelines, you control which users have access to the cloud services. This is a great advantage, especially for companies whose IT infrastructure is too complex for simple synchronization concepts such as DirSync, AAD Sync or AAD Connect.

Automated

Our solution eliminates the need for manual user provisioning via the administration interface in Microsoft Azure Active Directory or Office 365. In conjunction with Microsoft Identity Manager, this management agent uses existing user information and policies to automatically create, provision and continuously update Microsoft Azure Active Directory / Office 365 accounts. This reduces the administrative effort for your company enormously.

Automated license allocation

Over the term of a user account, licenses can be automatically assigned, activated and updated by our Management Agent. This solution is ideal for all companies that want to control additional expenditure. You only pay for the licenses you use.

Single sign-on with AD FS 2.0 / 3.0

Do you want to give your users seamless and secure access to Office 365? To achieve this, Microsoft Identity Manager manages login data and authorizations. For security reasons, access to the cloud requires authentication. We offer your users single sign-on by using AD FS 2.0/3.0 and federating your local Active Directory authentication with your cloud applications.
