OAM / OIM - Conceptual question

741077May 3 2010 — edited May 11 2010

Hi all,

I'm trying to understand the overlap between OAM and OIM in terms of identity management. I'm going through the OAM manuals and it talks about OAM's Identity System in a way that very closely resembles a lot of what OIM does, ie. user management, groups, delegated admin, self admin, etc...

I'm trying to understand how these two fit together. I know OIM does a lot more in terms of provisioning to other resources... is OAM considered a resources that OIM provisions to? If you have OIM and OAM, it seems that there's now 2 repositories of user data....

Can someone explain (or point me to a doc that does) the relationship(s) between OIM and OAM, how they fit together, which drives the other, etc...?

Thanks very much
Alex
