Term · 30. Big4 Advisory Framing
Cloud-Native Identity
Definition
Big4 advisory framing for identity systems designed specifically for cloud architectures — multi-tenant SaaS delivery, API-first, microservices-based, workload identity federation. Distinct from cloud-hosted legacy IDM (which is on-prem architecture lifted to cloud VMs). Foundation of modern IAM modernization roadmaps.
