Data processing system with synchronization of local directory information to cloud system

Abstract:

A primary domain controller maintains synchronization of directory information (e.g., Active Directory information) between local directory controllers in a local domain and cloud directory controllers in a cloud domain. The primary domain controller subscribes to directory event reports for selected directory events occurring at the local directory controllers, such as addition, deletion or modification of user accounts. Upon receiving the directory event reports, the primary domain controller creates corresponding directory event records in an event log, and regularly forwards contents of the directory event records of the event log to the cloud directory controllers for use in updating system directory information in the cloud domain.
