Data Organization

  2 minute read  

One or more tenant domains are present below the cloud infrastructure. Within tenant domains, the respective resources are listed grouped by technologies.

For downward compatibility with older Docusnap versions, the data of the following cloud modules is still in the Infrastructure section:

  • Azure Service - Legacy
  • Exchange Online
  • Office 365 - Legacy
  • AWS - Legacy

Data Organization - Cloud Technologies

The inventoried cloud platforms can be very extensive and complex. Therefore, to ensure a good overview, the collected data below the Tenant domain is divided into the following categories:

  • Management services - all services required for the creation, management and monitoring of resources in the cloud.
  • Services - all services that perform a specific task, such as storage or communication services
  • Identity providers - all services that are responsible for user management, authentication and authorization of the respective cloud provider

Data Organization - Specifics of the Microsoft Cloud Infrastructure

Während einer Inventarisierung wird ein Snapshot erstellt, der dann für jeden erfassten Management-Service, Service oder Identitätsanbieter als eigenständiger Eintrag angezeigt wird.

For best completeness, multiple technologies are used during the collection process. API calls to statistics that provide insight into the usage of the captured services are not available on a daily basis. Therefore, these data views are marked with a statistic symbol and the respective column last update of statistic provides information on which period this data refers to. In addition, this statistical data is used for the reports in the respective node Microsoft Product Reports.

Another special feature are the links within this data structure. For example, in the Identity Provider area for a user, in addition to his user properties, group memberships and the available authentication methods, there are also all Teams memberships, OneDrive usage, the Exchange Online mailbox and the Microsoft 365 licenses assigned to him.
