The mediator comprises adapters for interfacing with the managed endpoints, and the mediator is configured to: extract account data from the managed endpoints; store the extracted data when a direct connection between the mediator and the identity management service provider is unavailable; and export the stored data to the identity management service provider in response to a direct connection between the mediator and the identity management service provider becoming available.
