Cloud identity involves managing user accounts entirely in Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory) without any on-premises servers. This is ideal for organizations that are fully cloud-based.
On-premises identity involves managing user accounts solely on local servers without cloud integration.
Hybrid identity combines both on-premises and cloud identity solutions, allowing users to access resources in both environments with a single identity.
Federated identity uses a federation service to enable single sign-on with external identity providers, involving more complex setup and on-premises components.
