3 Overview Azure Active Directory Dirsync was formerly known as Dirsync, this tool has been updated to allow for the synchronization of local Active Directory passwords to Azure Active Directory. This new feature will allow for Same Sign In with Microsoft cloud services such as Office 365 Education powered by Azure Active Directory since the username and the password from local AD will by synced up to Azure AD. Introduction Estimated time to complete this lab 60 minutes Complete lab time estimate as accurately as possible. Objectives After completing this lab, you will be better able to: Overview of Lab This lab will guide the student through several process automation examples, providing hands on experience with the concepts explained in the student course manual. To provide real-world context, the guide is based on the Contoso, Ltd. scenario, a fictional organizations that is explained here and throughout the course. Virtual Machine Technology The computers in this lab are virtual machines that are implemented using Microsoft Hyper-V.
