The service that minimizes the complexity of Identity management by automating the process of creating, modifying, disabling, removing or deleting accounts in an effective and reliable way across individual back-end applications

Provisioning services automate the entire user account lifecycle across multiple backend systems - creating accounts when users join, modifying permissions as roles change, disabling accounts when access should be revoked, and deleting them after departure. Access Management (A) controls what users CAN access, not account creation. Identity Management (C) is the broader governance framework. User Management (D) typically refers to manual administration tasks.
