Abstract

Embodiments implement data versioning in a cloud-based identity management system. Embodiments provide a first microservice for performing an identity management service and having a corresponding first version application programming interface (“API”) that identifies the first microservice. Embodiments provide a second microservice for performing the identity management service, the second microservice comprising a new version of the first microservice and having a corresponding second version API that identifies the second microservice. Embodiments receive a request for performing the identity management service from a client of the identity management system, the request including a uniform resource locator (“URL”), where the first version API or the second version API are identified in the URL. Embodiments then perform the identity management service using either the first microservice or the second microservice based on the request and using tenant data stored in a database.
