Amazing KT. Great content 👍

nice overview! I configured cloud sync in my lab environment after seeing your first vid on it. To see what it can do now and be able to test new features when the become available. cant wait for cloud sync to be able to provision new users in in on premises active directory :)

Superb video as always John! I visualise using a combination of these 2 tools for a company that has separate domains but want to share a single AAD instance - however if both have Exchange on-premise that would scupper Hybrid for Cloud Sync. I could PST migrate or cutover using a 3rd party tool for the AD forest that i plan to use Cloud Sync for to get around this until Cloud Sync matures. Does that sound about right (hyperthetically ignoring the Exchange Hybrid server for AAD Connect Microsoft Support matrix currently)?

Great vid John thanks. How about a migration from 1 to the other? Say I've got a AADC sync for M365 users and I want to shift to AADCCS - is that a thing or are we talking net-new for the use cases?

@NTFAQGuy

Yes you can migrate and you can start with pilot as I said in video and linked document then switch

Thanks for vid. What about monitoring/reporting of sync (problems) with cloud sync? The regular AAD Connect provides that via the GUI tool.

John, as part of AD Connect sync, some domain information is synchronized to AAD and allows Azure AD Joined devices to SSO to on-premises resources using the Primary Refresh Token containing the info and requesting Kerberos ticket to a domain controller. Do you know if Cloud Sync synchronizes the same info utilized in this process just as AADC does?

@NTFAQGuy

No, it does not as that is write back.

I suppose that cloud sync does not support hybrid exchange. Is that something one would need to consider? And also: thanks for the video.

All covered in the doc I referenced in the video and link in the description. It has exchange hybrid writeback as a line item.

Can you place your azure ad connect server in azure to perform on ‘prem to azure syncs’ rather then having it on premise?

@NTFAQGuy

Жыл бұрын

yes, e.g. in iaas vm but have close to a DC, e.g. a DC in IaaS vm as well.

Thanks, John! Never can understand MS logic - we have good tools, we are updating it weekly, but we will not do a perfect tool, we will create new one, and you will need to choose a perfect tool for your scenario (but they both not perfect).

Microsoft saw the approach Okta and other best of breed IDP’s were using for the last 10 years to solve these problems and “tried” to implement that same approach.

I’m still flummoxed by the need to have an exchange server on premise to manage user cloud mailboxes after the account is synced to Azure. We migrated from GSuite to O365. Never had exchange on premise. Green field local AD. If I synch a pilot account we have to either install a local exchange management server or use ADSI edit to do things like add secondary email addresses. We kind of stumbled into it by noticing that when a test account synced from AD and matched to the cloud account it wiped out all of the secondary email addresses that were previously on the cloud account. Then we had to adsi edit them on the AD side and synch again to get them back. Is there any other solution?

@NTFAQGuy

If you sync accounts from AD then AD is the source of truth and you have to manage them from on-premises AD. If you don't want to manage them from AD and only want in cloud then use cloud accounts.

@@NTFAQGuy Thanks for the reply. That’s what I figured. Unfortunately a local AD environment was created and all the users and machines attached to it prior to my coming on board. Would have been great to do this cloud only with Azure AD users, Intune and Autopilot. Next upgrade cycle perhaps. 😀👍
