Configuration Baseline: User Profile Synchronization Items #8
Description
Create a set of Configuration Items and Baseline that allows an organization to mimic the kind of User Profile syncing that you would get from something like User Experience Virtualization (UE-V).
Examples of data to backup:
Browsers
Favorites
Home Page
Tabs
Toolbars
Extensions (possible?)
Mapped Drives
Application Configurations (Office, Adobe, etc.)
Office: Signature
Adobe: Workspaces
Purpose
This would allow an organization to easily implement some basic profile syncing on devices without requiring a heavy implementation of something such as User Experience Virtualization (UE-V) or other paid products. It can utilize existing storage infrastructure such as home drives or network shares or modern options like OneDrive.
Notes
This enhancement was identified when a customer found that they could not do basic things like enable browser settings syncing within a Microsoft 365 GCC tenant. So, users could not enjoy the basic benefits of having their profile/experience mirrored across the org on their various devices.
Potential Issues
Multiple Devices / Who Wins Scenario
There could be an issue where changes on multiple devices start to create a who wins scenario for writing against the cache location. This is hard to address without a very active, monitoring agent or adopting some method of merge/conflict resolution.
