System Center Advisor now supports Windows Azure Active Directory (formerly OrgID)
Organizational accounts (formerly OrgID) in Windows Azure Active Directory originated for the Office365 Suite of Services which includes Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, Lync Online. WAAD is an identity provider for organization-owned identities which are hosted purely in the cloud as well as a federation provider for identities that a customer prefers to host in their on-premises Active Directory. Unlike Microsoft accounts (formerly Windows Live ID), OrgID and WAAD are specifically focused on scenarios where the identity is not owned by an individual, but by an organization (company, university, etc.) in which an administrator has rights to manage the ID.
