Oracle announced Oracle Identity Management 10g Release 3, which includes enhanced provisioning functionality that should enable organizations to implement sustainable compliance policies and controls that help reduce costs, lower risk and improve enterprise-wide visibility of compliance controls. The release includes updated features, expanded hot-pluggable and manageability capabilities, and tighter integration across the entire family of Oracle IAM products. That is, all of those acquisitions Oracle has made are now tied together more tightly. It might not yet be fully integrated, but it is very close. Details at the Oracle Web site will show you how far Oracle has come in identity management in a very short time.
