Hi Atul ,
I am a B.Tech Fresher and Started my career with one of the top 5 IT companies in India 2 months back. I am working in Identity Management, now i am worried about the future prospects after working in this project in IDM, can you just elaborate how is the career in IDM as compared to J2ee or Sw Development/ DBA. Is IDM good enough and will be in demand in future ?
Amit,
In my opinion you are at right place.
Thanks for the reply
Hi Atul,

Currently working on OIM install to sync & provision between Active Directory, sun ldap, oid & ebs. Dev & qual are up but getting push back from AD & network team over AD connectors, latency etc. Trying to find case studies & tech specs on ad connector but cannot seem to find anything. even oracle doesn’t seem to be able to assist. does anyone know where such info can be found?
hi atul;
Does ldap,oid come along with EBusiness Suite of R12 or we need to go for a seperate installation.
Q. Does ldap,oid come along with EBusiness Suite of R12
No, OAS shipped with R12 is simple J2EE and Web Server
Q. Do we need to go for a seperate installation for OID/SSO with R12 ?
Yes
Atul,
I am working on OIM / Sun LDAP, when ever I am creating user in OIM, I am able to provision them, through resource profile.
My question is how this process can be automated, i.e Once the user gets created in OIM, should automatically go to LDAP aswell?
I am using webservie to create users in OIM, but they are not perculating to LDAP. Please advise. Thanks in advance.
