Directory Integration Toolkit

The directory integration toolkit enables third-party vendors and developers to integrate their solutions with the Oracle Directory Integration and Provisioning platform environment. Such vendors can include providers of metadirectories and provisioning solutions. The toolkit also allows application vendors whose products are based on or use Oracle technology to integrate provisioning of their users and groups with Oracle Internet Directory.

The toolkit includes the following interfaces, tools, and procedures:

• Interfaces for accessing changes in Oracle Internet Directory by clients:
  • IETF standard change log interface

  • Oracle proprietary change log interface

  • Interfaces to register or modify directory integration connectors in Oracle Internet Directory, for scheduling or data mapping, by using either Oracle Directory Manager or command-line tools to add and modify data by using an LDIF file configuration

• Tools and procedures for bootstrapping connected directories into the Oracle Directory Integration and Provisioning platform environment. These enable you to:
  • Bulk import data from LDIF files into Oracle Internet Directory

  • Bulk export data from Oracle Internet Directory into LDIF files

• Interfaces to subscribe to user and group provisioning events--that is, changes--in Oracle Internet Directory

• Interfaces to consume changes sent by the Oracle Directory Provisioning Integration Service
