Software:Oracle Identity Manager
In computing, Oracle Identity Manager (OIM)[1] enables enterprises to manage the entire user life-cycle across all enterprise resources both within and beyond a firewall. Within Oracle Identity Management it provides a mechanism for implementing the user-management aspects of a corporate policy.[citation needed] It can also audit users and their access privileges.[citation needed]
Versions
OIM has evolved based on the needs of enterprise users.[citation needed] It was earlier a Thor Technologies product - after Oracle Corporation acquired Thor (2005), OIM 9i was released. OIM 9i was based on the Struts framework.
Later Oracle Corporation released OIM 11olg R1 based on Oracle Application Developmental Framework. In July 2012 Oracle released OIM 11g R2
