Today’s (Cloud) Tip…
Did you know that if you sign up for Office 365 or Windows Intune, your tenant could be deleted after the subscription is expired?
But if you sign up for a tenant directly from Windows Azure, this tenant will never be deleted.
You can get a Windows Azure Active Directory without the need of a Windows Azure subscription by using the following link…
http://account.windowsazure.com/Organization
You can then manage many aspects of this tenant using the Office 365 portal (even if you don’t have an Office 365 subscription).
Tenants have a special tag that the tenant provisioning (or de-provisioning) service takes a look at to determine whether or not to delete a tenant.
