Two different domains in one Office 365 tenant
- Aug 22, 2017
Hi,
There can be only one Azure AD Connect instance for a single Azure tenant. This means, you have to use one AAD Connect instance for both companies, if you want to go single tenant.
Azure AD Connect supports connecting multiple forests to a single Azure AD tenant. A server that runs Azure AD Connect does not have to be joined to any domain locally, however, it must be able to access domain controllers in both forests.
In some cases, you can choose to place the Azure AD Connect server in a (DMZ), especially if you do not have a direct network connection to all forests that you would like to include in the synchronization.
If you need more information, you probable should tell what is your goal and how both companies must work together.
Is it possible to add an additional domain to o365 tenant and have it share o365 services (teams, mail, onedrive) with users from the same tenant but using a different domain?
e.g. we have Domain1.com in our o365 tenant, imagine I add doamin2.com as an additional domain.
Would user@domain1.com be able to browse the directory of Domain2.com and message anyone@domain1.com or share files natively like user is part of the same tenant?

In the case of having multiple Azure AD tenants, AAD sync, separate AD Forests with trusts:
Can a user in Company A manage an Exchange resource in Company B?

You can grant delegated access to another company so they can manage your O365 tenant using their credential.
