CA CloudMinder Identity Management Service

Identity Management allows you to manage user accounts in on-premise and cloud applications, called endpoints, from a single location. Administrators can assign and revoke accounts. Administrators can also specify account settings, such as mailbox size for an email account.

Administrators manage endpoint accounts through provisioning roles. Provisioning roles contain account templates, which define account settings. When an administrator assigns a provisioning role to a user, that user receives the accounts defined by the templates in the role.

A provisioning role can manage accounts on multiple endpoints. For example, a Sales provisioning role can include an account for a salesperson in SalesForce.com, a cloud application, and Active Directory, and on-premise application.

Identity Management communicates with endpoints through connectors. To communicate with applications installed in your organization's data centers, you install an an-premise connector server, as shown in the following illustration.
