Official Phishing Boat Of CIS 2014

Agenda•Microsoft’s Relevance Today• Azure Active Directory•Getting to Azure AD•Observations

Is Microsoft Still Relevant?• Long history of• Corporate arrogance• Slow to react to trends• Misguided products

• Microsoft has reset its market share from 90% (PCs only) to 14% (all devices)• None of these are enterprise infrastructure services

Dismiss Microsoft at your Peril

• Microsoft operating systems dominate the enterprise data center• 75% of servers worldwide run

Windows Server • Active Directory dominates on-

premises identity• 90% of businesses with a directory

run AD• 95% of Fortune 1000 • > 750M AD users worldwide

• 1+ billion Office users• Office 365 fastest growing product in

Microsoft history

• Cloud & Enterprise FY13 revenue: $20 billion

Azure Is Microsoft’s Future• > $19B invested• 16 data centers• > 1M physical servers• 17% of WW purchased

server hardware in 2013• “…data center build-outs at

a scale no one has ever seen before”• Planned 2x capacity in 2015• … and 2x again in 2016

Azure Dublin Data Center (note outside-air cooling)

…and Azure Active Directory is its Identity Foundation

• Identity bridge configuration tool to Azure AD• AD FS • DirSync / AADSync

• Wizard driven• Federation failback with

password sync• June preview?

ObservationsFor all• Cloud is Microsoft’s

future…Azure AD is at the center of Microsoft’s cloud strategy

• Strongly resourced• New Azure AD features

every few weeks• Weak points are being

reinforced

ObservationsFor ISVs• Azure AD is a player to be

reckoned with• “(Microsoft has) the

potential to significantly impact the IDaaS market." *

• Don’t assume “lowest common denominator” functionality

• Must differentiate products from Azure AD Premium

* Gregg Kreizman, Gartner Magic Quadrant for Identity and Access Management As A Service, June 2014

ObservationsFor end users• Azure AD Premium is still

rough around the edges• Improving fast• Initially targeted at large

enterprises• Designed to be easy for

MOS (e.g. Office 365) users• But doesn’t require MOS• Proceed from

requirements
