Transitioning from the MIM Portal to Microsoft Entra ID: MIM Retirement Series Part 2

Future-Proof Your Identity Strategy Without Disrupting On-Premises Synchronization For organizations relying on the Microsoft Identity Manager (MIM) Portal, modernizing identity management is no longer a matter of "if," but "when." While the MIM Portal has served as a dependable solution for self-service group management, password resets, and administrative workflows, its limitations are evident in when it comes to dynamic hybrid and cloud-native environments. At the same time, the MIM synchronization engine is often still used to manage on-premises directory and identity integration, raising critical questions about balancing modernization with existing infrastructure. Join Senior Architect Tim Watson to learn how to navigate the transition from the MIM Portal to Microsoft Entra ID while retaining the MIM sync engine on-premises. Organizations can leverage Microsoft Entra ID’s advanced self-service capabilities, automated workflows, and governance features—all without disrupting existing on-premises synchronization processes. Topics include: - Common IAM scenarios managed in the MIM Portal and how Microsoft Entra ID addresses them - The continued role of the MIM sync engine in hybrid identity environments - Practical guidance for decoupling the MIM Portal while keeping the sync engine operational - Real-world migration examples showcasing successful transitions to Microsoft Entra ID This session is ideal for IT leaders, identity architects, and system administrators seeking to modernize their identity management solutions while preserving their investments in on-premises synchronization.
