LAND O’LAKES,FL–FRIDAY,MARCH 20,2009:Optimal IdM LLC, a premier Microsoft Identity & Access (IDA) partner and a leading global provider of identity management software and consulting solutions, today announced it has formally received Microsoft’s Window Server 2003 and 2008 certifications for its Virtual Identity Server (VIS™) family of products.The Virtual Identity Server is a Microsoft-centric LDAP virtual directory developed in .NET managed code that enhances the functionality of the Microsoft environment, while leveraging the customer’s existing investment. The Virtual Identity Server platform has several editions that help simplify a customer’s environment, removes application deployment barriers, reduces the total cost of ownership and insures compliance with full audit and reporting capabilities. When should you consider a virtual directory? Nada Jumper, Chief Software Architect of Optimal IdM, offers, “While, there are many reasons an organization should look at virtual directory technology, mergers and acquisitions are a prime candidate. A virtual directory can quickly and easily be deployed to provide a merged real-time view of the two companies, allowing for rapid deployment of applications such as SharePoint, as well as, performing compliance and reporting across multiple forests in real-time.”The Virtual Identity Server provides tremendous return on investment for an organization. Among VIS’ benefits are its ability to: remove application deployment barriers, handle data latency problems, protect and secure Active Directory as an LDAP firewall, increase performance in Active Directory and applications, eliminate third party schema changes, and provide real-time enterprise wide compliance and reporting. Windows Server 2003 and 2008 certification testing is performed independently and involves testing applications to confirm an application’s performance and compliance on the Windows Server 2003 and 2008 platforms. Testing was conducted independently by VeriTest, a testing service of Lionbridge Technologies. By obtaining the Windows Server 2003 and 2008 Certification for its Virtual Identity Server editions, Optimal IdM reinforces its commitment to its customers and its Microsoft partnership.
