#MICROSOFT PRODUCT MANAGER FOR WINDOWS 10#

MIM 2016 can be used to establish end user single sign-on access privileges to cloud-based apps that are supported by Azure Active Directory, according to a Microsoft blog post. Microsoft is also touting 'hybrid identity management' support (for cloud and premises-based environments) with Azure Active Directory. It now has support for using REST-based APIs for certificate management in multiforest environments, for instance. Microsoft is touting MIM 2016 as a 'modernized' product. It also supports Windows 8.1 clients, Windows Server 2012 R2 and the latest System Center Service Manager products, according to Microsoft's TechNet specs.

The product, which supports identity and access management for premises-based computing environments, is notable for having support for Windows 10 clients. Updated links to get the product apparently will be available 'next week,' according to Microsoft's announcement today. Getting the commercial product is somewhat unclear as links today on Microsoft's main page for MIM just go to the trial version. It was at a second beta stage back in April, but it now can be downloaded as a 180-day evaluation copy at this page.

MIM 2016 is the successor product to Forefront Identity Manager 2010 R2. The Microsoft Identity Manager 2016 product hit 'general availability' release status today, meaning that it's available for commercial deployments.
