Azure AD Connect cloud sync is a feature that allows synchronization of on-premises Active Directory objects to Azure Active Directory. With this feature, organizations can synchronize objects, attributes, and password hashes between on-premises AD and Azure AD without the need for an on-premises sync server or any other infrastructure.
The Azure AD Connect cloud sync service runs in the cloud and can be used to synchronize objects from multiple on-premises AD forests to a single Azure AD tenant. This service supports synchronization of identities, groups, and devices, along with password writeback, group writeback, and device writeback features. Additionally, Azure AD Connect cloud sync provides a centralized management experience, allowing organizations to manage their on-premises AD and Azure AD synchronization configurations from a single console.
