After the Transition to OUD

5 After the Transition to OUD

Additional information required after transitioning from Directory Server Enterprise Edition to Oracle Unified Directory are provided in the following section:

5.1 Your New OUD Environment

With its elastic scalability, high availability, superior performance, and enterprise manageability, Oracle Unified Directory will deliver carrier grade services that will scale on demand with your business growth. After you conclude your transition to Oracle Unified Directory, you can deploy added value features to improve and expand directory services.

OUD with its unique replication gateway, with DIP and OVD, is the industry's first and only Java-based unified directory solution. It addresses the fragmented solution challenges that enterprises are facing today, significantly reducing total cost of ownership.

Finally, because OUD adheres to the LDAP standards and integrates with Oracle Fusion Middleware platform, your transition to OUD will ensure that your directory service can easily work with existing applications and maximizes the value of data in your directory in a broader Fusion Middleware Solution.

Refer to the following OUD documents:
