Data level Integration for Directories and Identity Management

IBM Tivoli Directory Integrator (ITDI) is a data synchronization and automation tool. It performs transformation and integration in an incorporated development and deployment environment that helps customers quickly and effectively integrate application-specific data sources to provide a consistent, enterprise-level view of identity information.

IBM Tivoli Directory Integrator is used extensively as an adjunct product in Identity and Access Management (IAM) projects. It is often used to build feeds to populate personal and account related data. It can also be used to create provisioning agents for custom applications with unique requirements.

IBM Tivoli Directory Integrator is designed to merge data residing in directories, databases, and collaborative systems, as well as applications used for human resources (HR), customer relationship management (CRM), and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), and other corporate functions. By serving as a flexible and extensible integration layer between a company's identity infrastructure and the sources of identity data, IBM Directory Integrator facilitates the deployment of an enterprise directory solution. By maintaining the enterprise identity infrastructure consistently and accurately, the data can then be used by a wide variety of applications ranging from security and provisioning to advanced Web services.
