Task segregation in a multi-tenant identity and data security management cloud service

1. A non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to provide cloud-based identity management, the provide comprising:

receiving a request to perform an identity management service for a user that comprises a plurality of tasks;

separating the plurality of tasks into real-time tasks and near-real-time tasks, the real-time tasks comprising operations needed for the user to proceed in accessing a resource;

synchronously executing the real-time tasks by accessing at least one service, wherein synchronously executing comprises completing an execution of a first real-time task before starting an execution of a second task; and

asynchronously executing the near-real-time tasks by offloading the near-real-time tasks to one or more message queues, wherein asynchronously executing comprises allowing an execution of a third task to start before finishing an execution of a fourth near-real-time task.

2. The computer readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the service comprises a microservice that is accessed using a corresponding application programming interface (API).

3. The computer readable medium of claim 2 , wherein the microservice comprises an elastic cache cluster.

4. The computer readable medium of claim 3 , wherein the elastic cache cluster comprises a distributed data grid.

5. The computer readable medium of claim 2 , wherein the microservice is stateless, wherein the microservice performs the identity management service based on tenant data stored in a database, wherein the database and the microservice are configured to scale independently of one another.

6. The computer readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the user is allowed to proceed with accessing the resource when the real-time tasks are completed and before the near-real-time tasks are completed.

7. The computer readable medium of claim 6 , wherein the identity management service includes authenticating the user, wherein the real-time tasks include validating credentials of the user and starting a corresponding session.

8. The computer readable medium of claim 7 , wherein the near-real-time tasks include at least one of auditing or notifications.

9. A method of cloud-based identity management, comprising:

receiving a request to perform an identity management service for a user that comprises a plurality of tasks;

separating the plurality of tasks into real-time tasks and near-real-time tasks, the real-time tasks comprising operations needed for the user to proceed in accessing a resource;

synchronously executing the real-time tasks by accessing at least one, wherein synchronously executing comprises completing an execution of a first real-time task before starting an execution of a second task; and

asynchronously executing the near-real-time tasks by offloading the near-real-time tasks to one or more message queues, wherein asynchronously executing comprises allowing an execution of a third task to start before finishing an execution of a fourth near-real-time task.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the service comprises a microservice that is accessed using a corresponding application programming interface (API).

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the microservice comprises an elastic cache cluster.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the elastic cache cluster comprises a distributed data grid.

13. The method of claim 10 , wherein the microservice is stateless, wherein the microservice performs the identity management service based on tenant data stored in a database, wherein the database and the microservice are configured to scale independently of one another.

14. The method of claim 9 , wherein the user is allowed to proceed with accessing the resource when the real-time tasks are completed and before the near-real-time tasks are completed.

15. The method of claim 9 , wherein the identity management service includes authenticating a user, wherein the real-time tasks include validating credentials of the user and starting a corresponding session.

16. The method of claim 9 , wherein the near-real-time tasks include at least one of auditing or notifications.

17. A system for providing cloud-based identity management, the system comprising:

one or more processors that execute instructions to implement modules, the modules comprising:

a receiving module that receives a request to perform an identity management service for a user that comprises a plurality of tasks, wherein the plurality of tasks comprise real-time tasks and near-real-time tasks, and separates the plurality of tasks into real-time tasks and near-real-time tasks, the real-time tasks comprising operations needed for the user to proceed in accessing a resource; and

a synchronously executing module that synchronously executes the real-time tasks by accessing at least one service, wherein synchronously executing comprises completing an execution of a first real-time task before starting an execution of a second task; and

an asynchronously executing module that asynchronously executes the near-real-time tasks by offloading the near-real-time tasks to one or more message queues, wherein asynchronously executing comprises allowing an execution of a third task to start before finishing an execution of a fourth near-real-time task.

18. The system of claim 17 , wherein the service comprises a microservice that is accessed using a corresponding application programming interface (API).

19. The system of claim 17 , wherein the user is allowed to proceed with accessing the resource when the real-time tasks are completed and before the near-real-time tasks are completed.

20. The system of claim 17 , wherein the identity management service includes authenticating the user, wherein the real-time tasks include validating credentials of the user and starting a corresponding session.
