Introduction

Hi Friends,

I'm Anil Bandamudi, started working on sailpoint IdentityIQ in Jan 2010. I have experience on web applications development and also sun identity manager implementation before coming to this product implementation.

The Sun IDM experience is the plus in getting the knowledge on sailpoint product. I have installed identity IQ 3.0 p18 version in my machine to start knowing on this product. Actually we don't have much documentation in starting days about features and real time usage. We analysed it later. I'm listing some of the important items

Authoritative resource and non authoritative resource
Aggregation
Correlation
Certification

the above 4 items are nothing for the experienced guys on this product. of course, but as part of our Research and development we concerned on the following

  • what is the flow
  • where to start the process and what are the steps in identity life cycle
  • what are the types of resources and their connectors
  • how should we modify the actual data before creating/correlating identity. 
  • what are the advantages of this product over sun IDM(not only sun, we have CA,novel, tivoli and so many products -- I mentioned sun idm bcoz I have some experience on this product)


I'll write brief explanation about these in next post

Have a great day!!!!!
