Abstract
A technique for identity service management in a computing environment having a plurality of managed endpoints includes a mediator located within the computing environment and remote from an identity management service provider located external to the computing environment to enable management of the plurality of managed endpoints by the identity management service provider. The mediator includes a service manager configured to authenticate the mediator to the managed endpoints and configure the managed endpoints for pulling data from the managed endpoints. The mediator also includes a data exporter configured to export the data by the mediator to the identity management service provider in response to detecting a direct connection between the mediator and the identity management service provider.
