Description: ASP.NET Core Identity is designed to enable us to easily use a number of different storage providers for our ASP.NET applications. We can use the supplied Identity providers that are included with the .NET Framework, or we can implement your own providers.  There are two primary reasons for creating a custom Identity  provider.  We need to store Identity information in a data source that is not supported by the Identity providers included with the .NET Framework, such as a MysQL database, an Oracle database, or other data sources. We need to manage Identity information using a database schema that is different from the database schema used by the providers that ship with the .NET Framework.  A common example of this would be to use authentication data that already exists in a SQL Server database for a company or Web site. In this tutorial, we are going to implement and configure a custom Identity Provider using ASP.NET MVC Core and IndentityCore
