A county syncs on-premises Active Directory accounts into Microsoft Entra ID so staff can use Microsoft 365. Which identity model is that?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
The county keeps the local directory for older systems and mirrors those accounts into Entra ID for Microsoft 365. That bridge is hybrid identity. One workforce, two directory worlds working together.
Full Explanation
Hybrid identity integrates on-premises Active Directory with Microsoft Entra ID so the same users can access cloud Microsoft 365 services while still supporting on-premises needs. Syncing county AD accounts to Entra ID is the conceptual hybrid pattern MS-900 expects—not configuration of sync tools. Cloud-only identity skips on-premises directories; SSPR and Windows 365 address different problems.
