The cloud identity

In identity, standards are a serious thing. According to the Business Dictionary (https://businessdictionary.info/), a standard is defined as a “formulation, publication and implementation of guidelines, rules, and specification for common and repeated use, aimed at achieving the optimum degree of order or uniformity in a given context, discipline, or field.” This sentence encompasses brilliantly why standardization is so important – by adopting standards and protocols commonly agreed upon by a vast community of people, enterprises are enabled to make choices without having an active participation in the realization of the model that needs to be developed.

In the previous chapter, we talked about the cloud being a hugely transformational phenomenon that has greatly impacted our lives by making a plethora of services available to people in all parts of the world, all thanks to the distributed nature of cloud services.
