IBM® Security Directory Integrator helps you build an authoritative data infrastructure by integrating data from directories, databases, collaborative systems, applications and other data sources.
IBM Security Directory Integrator:
- Unifies identity silos – into an authoritative identity store with integration templates and tools.
- Helps solve virtual directory scenarios – with a hybrid approach that simplifies directory migration and coexistence.
- Provides an open synchronization architecture – that supports multi-vendor IT infrastructures.
- Reduces cost and improves return on investment – of directory integrations—and helps manage identity infrastructure in private and public clouds.
- Provides broad support – for platforms, operating systems, protocols and standards.
Unifies identity silos
- Uses a federated directory server feature to correlate identities and reconcile data.
- Provides a GUI for configuration, customization and maintenance of synchronization rules—and transforms, moves and synchronizes data.
- Facilitates data migration and transformation to other file formats and synchronization between two or more systems—and supports scheduled synchronization and event-driven workflows.
- Creates authoritative data spaces to expose only trustworthy data and offers an operations monitoring administrative console.
- Provides connectors for rapid integration and enables you to create custom connectors in Java and JavaScript.
Helps solve virtual directory scenarios
- Creates a centralized data store of silos of data while federating authentication to the original data sources.
- Meets service level agreements with IBM Security Directory Server as the backbone.
Provides an open synchronization architecture
- Simpler to deploy and delivers rapid time to value.
- Scales from small to large deployments.
- Enables both meta-directory and point-to-point integration.
- Supports a decentralized architecture, which eliminates deploying and maintaining a centralized, proprietary data store.
Reduces cost and improves return on investment
- Takes advantage of your existing infrastructure and eliminates the need for additional programming.
- Provides a white pages application and social networking capabilities.
- Supports user management in the cloud through a Representational State Transfer (REST).
- Reads and writes to a system that provides a system for cross domain identity management (SCIM) interface.
Provides broad support
- Supports IBM AIX®, Microsoft Windows, UNIX and Linux environments.
- Supports numerous standard protocols, transports, application program interfaces (API) and formats.
- Integrates with a variety of repositories and technologies.
- Enables integration with new and existing web services.
