17. A system for identity management, the system comprising:
a storage medium having stored thereon a sequence of instructions; and
a processor that executes the sequence of instructions to cause the processor to perform acts comprising,
determining a centralized identity authentication management service for a master identity database of the centralized identity authentication management service on a master node;
establishing a non-master copy of the master identity database that is distributed to a non-master node other than the master node;
establishing ongoing coordination between the master identity database and the non-master copy to synchronize differences between the master identity database and the non-master copy, wherein the differences correspond to at least one data change that is made locally to the non-master copy and is propagated to the master identity database; and

replicating, using a replication facility, at least a policy between a cloud infrastructure node and the non-master node that hosts the non-master copy in a first availability zone, wherein the master node is in a second availability zone.
