- Oracle Identity and Access Management (IAM) is used to securely manage user access and identities across an organization's applications and systems. It provides features for creating and managing user accounts, roles and access privileges.
- The Oracle IAM architecture separates functionality into three tiers - presentation, server, and data - for scalability. Connectors define how Oracle IAM integrates with external resources through reconciliation and provisioning.
- Administrators construct connectors by defining components like resource types, processes, and adapters to automate user provisioning and identity synchronization between Oracle IAM and target applications and directories.
