Oracle Virtual Directory

Accelerate the Deployment of Applications, Portals, and Security Infrastructure
The first step in deploying a secure application is often to consolidate or synchronize all the user-identity sources that the new application will access. Oracle Virtual Directory eliminates this difficult step. It does this by accessing identity information contained in several identity sources, such as LDAP-enabled directories and databases, and presenting it to the application as one data source. Oracle Virtual Directory is available as a stand-alone or as part of Oracle's award-winning Oracle Identity & Access Management Suite.

• Rapid Application Deployment—Reduces time spent integrating complex identity data sources
• Tighter control over identity data—Allows data to remain with existing data owners, avoiding synchronization or other processes that can lead to data security and data ownership issues
• Real-time access to identity information—Ensures that applications get access to changes in identity information directly from the source, avoiding user confusion and security issues involved in synchronization delays
