Delivering an Identity Service through Virtualization
sponsored by Radiant Logic, Inc.
ABSTRACT:
Delivering smarter security and more customized services are at the top of any IT agenda. But while these goals may appear quite different from a business and technical perspective, they share a lot under the surface. In fact, both would be easier—and cheaper—to achieve with a common infrastructure—what we call an identity and context service.
Now, this idea may seem a bit paradoxical at first glance. After all, different teams—with diverging backgrounds and separate budgets— traditionally handle these targets. Why would the directory-focused security unit and the database-driven data management crowd want—or need—to rely on a shared infrastructure? What exactly is an identity and context service? And how would such an infrastructure serve these two very different groups, with their very separate and specific agendas?
Read this white paper as we’ll address all these questions throughout.
