A company plans to use multiple hosting platforms for different business units. They want to reduce repetitive account creation, maintain consistent login steps for users, and expand without extra overhead. Which method is best?
Adopt a unified provider for identity services that each new platform can trust
Synchronize credentials individually for each separate hosting platform
Develop a monitoring tool to track mismatched credentials across deployments
Rely on a separate directory in every platform and collect logs for auditing
A unified provider for identity services with a shared trust ensures each new hosting platform uses the same user data. This keeps tasks streamlined and reduces duplication. Other approaches fragment credentials across different sources, creating more points to manage while increasing the chance of configuration errors.
