Hey, I heard you can synchronize your Active Directory with your Microsoft Entra tenant using a magic wand and a handful of fairy dust. Option A just sounds like the most practical solution to me.

Because having three sync servers will ensure redundancy and one in staging mode for failover.

I'm just impressed you have three Active Directory forests to manage. That must be one heck of an IT department! As for the question, I think option D is the most robust solution.

I'm with Leonida on this one. The multiple sync servers and staging mode should give us the failover we need. Plus, it's always good to have a backup plan, right? Option D is the way to go.

Hmm, I'm not sure about the staging mode servers. Wouldn't it be better to just have six sync servers and let them handle the load? Option C seems more straightforward to me.

That's a good point. Maybe a combination of both options would be the best solution.

But wouldn't having three sync servers in staging mode help with failover in case one server goes down?

Wow, three Active Directory forests? That's a lot of data to sync. I think option D is the way to go - three sync servers and three in staging mode should give us the redundancy and speed we need.
