Globalization support in Oracle Identity Manager enables you to deploy Oracle Identity Manager using supported languages and country locales from around the world. Globalization of software applications consists of two aspects, internationalization and localization, as described in the following topics:
Internationalization refers to the process of adapting products for use with other languages, nations, and cultures. The internationalization of software applications includes the following tasks:
Separating resources, such as strings, images, and so on, from application code
Selecting the appropriate code page (the character set) and defining the code page conversions
Modifying all text manipulation algorithms to be aware of the selected code page
Modifying the logic for algorithms that handle dates, times, currency, numerics, and so on
Modifying the logic used in collation and sorting algorithms
Isolating the text strings in images
Localization refers to the process of preparing an internationalized software application for a specific market, and includes the following tasks:
Translating resource strings into the target languages, taking into consideration characteristics of the locale where the target language is used
Identifying potentially non-localizable resources and removing them, if necessary
In Release 9.0.3, Oracle Identity Manager has been localized into the following languages
English
Japanese
French
German
Italian
