Info: You have chosen to use the Office 365 cloud identity solution for managing Office 365 users. In this model, you create and manage users in the Office 365 admin center and store the accounts in Azure Active Directory, the cloud-based user authentication service used by Office 365. No on-premises servers are required — which enables organizations to reduce the complexity and maintenance costs of on-premises infrastructure. When identity and authentication are handled completely in the cloud, you can manage user accounts and user licenses through the Office 365 admin center or Windows PowerShell cmdlets.
