User Management
While the benefits of Cloud Computing and SaaS (Software as a Service) are numerous, a new problem has arisen. Since many Internet applications maintain their own user directories, and their customers may have hundreds or thousands of users accessing these applications, managing remote user accounts quickly becomes unmanageable — and costly. To make matters worse, IT already manages the same accounts in its own enterprise directory.
