Hi All,
The link - http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/azure/dn532272.aspx mentions that following features are currently in preview.
- Password reset with write-back to on-premises directories
- Azure AD Sync bi-directional synchronization
- Azure AD Application Proxy
I have a question about bi-directional synchronization.
Does this include everything like users, contacts, groups?
We have an on-premise AD and currently synchronize one way to Azure AD.
I can see the benefit in password reverse sync - to allow users self service reset without having to deploy on-premises FIM.
But could not think of reasons why we would want to manage users, groups in Azure AD and synchronize them back to on-premises AD.....especially for those who have FIM to do group management on-premises and DirSync to synchronize them to AAD.
Regards,
