What is enable remote mailbox (hybrid) activity?

Published data for Enable Remote Mailbox (Hybrid) You can use the Enable Remote Mailbox (Hybrid) activity to create a mailbox in the cloud-based service for an existing user in the on-premises Active Directory (hybrid environment). The following tables list the required properties, optional properties, and published data for this activity.

Why do we need a hybrid environment?

User identity and access It all starts with managing identities. We have a hybrid environment that helps us both retain and expand existing systems while using a cloud-based control plane to enable people to work productively and securely.

What is an azure hybrid cloud application?

Hybrid cloud applications are a single system that has components running in both Azure and Azure Stack. This solution blueprint is relevant to establishing connectivity for any application that involves communications between the Azure public cloud and on-premises Azure Stack components.

Why is it important to choose a cloud platform such as Azure?

Therefore, it’s important to choose a cloud platform such as Azure that embraces a multicloud approach and offers product capabilities that help significantly simplify multicloud management.

What is multicloud computing?

Multicloud computing refers to the use of multiple cloud computing services from more than one cloud provider—including private and public clouds—in a heterogeneous environment. A multicloud strategy provides greater flexibility and mitigates risk.

Connect any app, in any cloud or on premises, to any user

Provide all your users with secure access to your legacy apps. Streamline and modernize access to apps that support legacy authentication, including Kerberos, NTLM, Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), LDAP, SSH, and header-based and form-based authentication.

Leverage your exisiting investments in network security

Simplify and secure end user access to your legacy apps with prebuilt integrations from partners such as F5, Zscaler, Akamai, and Citrix ADC. Apply security policies to all your apps, whether in the cloud or on- premises. Give end users a secure way to access all their apps using SSO and passwordless authentication.

Unify access management for all your Oracle apps

Provide secure and seamless access to all your Oracle apps. Enable SSO for Oracle E-Business Suite, JD Edwards, and any Oracle apps on Azure that access data on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Run your Oracle app on either cloud or run an app that spans both clouds using risk-based authentication, Conditional Access, policies and sign-in analytics.

In this suite

Microsoft’s adoption of Zero Trust—never trust, always verify—strengthens network security by directly managing employee devices that access corporate resources and services. Under the Zero Trust model, devices may only access network resources after device health has been verified, which significantly reduces the risk of malware and intrusion.

Teamwork and meetings

Microsoft Teams is our central hub for chat, calls, meetings, and apps. Microsoft 365 integration provides access to the people, content, and tools our teams need to work effectively in the cloud.

Employee engagement and community

No matter where they are in the world, Microsoft employees are engaged and connected to each other and our leaders, thanks in large part to live events in Microsoft 365 and Yammer.

Intelligent intranet and information hub

SharePoint has been the backbone of Microsoft's intranet since 2002. A lot has changed since then, and the SharePoint team has kept pace. All major intranet portals and 100 percent of Microsoft Team sites have moved to SharePoint in Microsoft 365.

Cloud-first file management

In a cloud-first world, effective collaboration requires more than simply uploading files to the cloud. It requires workflows designed from the ground up to foster alignment, share ideas, and make faster decisions. Making files and services available in the cloud enables our employees to access and work on files from anywhere.

What is a Hybrid Environment?

Hybrid environment refers to a combination of computers, users, services, and storage consisting of on-premises infrastructure (AD), and cloud services (Azure AD). For Instance, you may host most of your application servers on-prem but use Azure SQL Database in the cloud. This combination is referred to as a hybrid environment.

What is DMZ with external access?

DMZ with External AccessThis includes deploying a web content server in the DMZ, a load balancer, and reverse proxy. There is another blog post that details this method here.

Can Azure AD be used as an extension of AD?

Employees require access to both environments, and this can be difficult to achieve; however, using Azure AD as an extension of AD we can create a solution where there is one identity for authentication across your hybrid environment.

Is Azure AD a cloud?

Azure AD is not and was not built to be a cloud replacement for Active Directory (AD). Azure AD is not simply a directory or domain controller in the cloud. As mentioned earlier, Azure AD is an Identity and Access Management (IAM) tool for cloud and hybrid environments.
