Unified Cloud Identity Store & Directory Synchronization

What is a Unified Cloud Identity Store?

A unified cloud identity store centralizes identity data in a cloud-native directory service that provides a consistent, real-time source of truth for user profiles, device information, and resource access across an organization’s IT landscape.

Why Synchronize Your Identity Directories?

Directory synchronization ensures all connected systems - whether cloud, on-prem, or hybrid - reflect the latest user information and access privileges, thus eliminating manual update errors and potential security gaps. This approach integrates multiple independent directories, identity providers, and access systems into a single manageable service that enforces uniform policies, enhances security, and streamlines user operations.

01

Robust Directory Services

Consolidate and store all user identities from multiple directories in a single, high-availability, high-performance platform. The unified cloud identity store eliminates the complexity of managing multiple separate identity services while maintaining reliability at scale. This serves as the foundation for many of Akku’s key functionalities, including granular access control, end-to-end identity lifecycle management, and comprehensive auditing for streamlined compliance processes, stronger security, and improved operational efficiency.

02

Support for Major Authentication Protocols

Integrate Akku seamlessly with a wide range of applications using all major federated authentication protocols such as CAS, SAML, OpenID, and WS-Fed. This ensures consistent, secure access management across cloud and on-prem environments, simplifies user access, reduces credential sprawl, and enables centralized identity governance while delivering a smooth, frictionless login experience for users and administrators alike

03

Federation Gateway

Deploy Akku as your centralized Identity Provider (IdP), enabling application service providers to establish a trust relationship and federate authentication securely. This system delivers seamless single sign-on (SSO) across multiple applications, reducing password fatigue and improving user experience. At the same time, it strengthens security as it enables centralized policy enforcement, consistent authentication controls, and simplified identity management for administrators.

04

Synchronization & Replication

Automate real-time and scheduled bi-directional data synchronizations across multiple directories, with built-in conflict resolution. This ensures user information remains consistent and accurate across systems without necessitating manual updates. Any changes are immediately propagated to all connected directories, thus reducing errors, preventing data drift, and maintaining reliable user identity data to streamline the authentication, authorization, and lifecycle management processes.

05

Schema Extension Capabilities

Customize directory schemas to add new user attributes or object classes aligned to specific business, regulatory, or operational requirements. These extensions integrate seamlessly across all connected systems, ensuring consistency and interoperability. This flexibility allows organizations to manage their identities accurately, support evolving compliance needs, and adapt directory structures without disrupting existing applications, integrations, or identity workflows.

06

High Availability & Reliable Performance

Benefit from Akku’s cloud infrastructure that’s designed with redundancy in mind. With built-in load balancing, automatic failover, and robust disaster recovery solutions, identity services remain continuously available even during outages. Built for resilience and scale, Akku ensures secure, high-performance and high-availability access for users at all times. It also minimizes downtime and delivers the reliability required for mission-critical enterprise environments.
