What Is Identity Manager Service Provider?

Identity Manager Service Provider is a highly-scalable, extranet -focused identity management solution that is capable of provisioning and maintaining millions of end-user accounts that are stored on an LDAP directory server. Service Provider can also manages thousands of administrator accounts and synchronizes LDAP account data with other resources.

Service Provider is a component of Identity Manager and is installed automatically. However, deploying Service Provider functionality requires additional planning and effort beyond that required for Identity Manager.
