In this course, a follow on to the Sun Identity Manager: Deployment Fundamentals (IDM-345) course, students will be instructed in how to complete a four-phase deployment scenario. In phase three of the deployment scenario, students use Active Sync synchronization to synchronize identity information between a data feed from the human resources (HR) department, an Active Directory instance, a Corporate LDAP directory service, a contractor SQL database, and the Solaris Operating System. In phase four of the deployment scenario, students build an end user self-service provisioning strategy that lets contractors perform self-registration and lets contractors and employees request system resources with resource approvals. Students implement the necessary forms, rules, and workflow to meet the business requirements of the given case study and learn how to further customize the Sun Identity Manager (Identity Manager) system.
The hands-on labs offered in this course might involve accessing equipment that resides at a location other than where the training is delivered. This course features Identity Manager 8.1, the NetBeans Integrated Development Environment, as well as the GlassFish application server.
Sun Identity Manager is a complete, highly scalable solution for managing, auditing, protecting, sharing and storing identity data. It helps ensure ongoing and sustainable regulatory compliance, role-based provisioning, data synchronization among multiple identity data stores, and end user self-registration.
The number of students may be adjusted after the course has been added to the cart.
