For several years, we have all heard about the value of providing Single Sign-On (SSO) for Web Portals. SSO simplifies access and provides a better user experience. There are many great Web Access Management (WAM) packages available today. These packages provide developers with excellent support for Web SSO. However, often overlooked is the “behind the scenes” need for identity integration. This is the need to provide a unified and composite view of all users across disparate data sources.

As the market leader of complete solutions built on a virtual identity platform, our customer experience has revealed many misconceptions about the capabilities a Virtual Directory Server should have. As we continue our series, we examine the myth that "Virtual Directories do not need metadata or data modeling capabilities".

As with every myth, the story starts with some element of truth. The idea is that in a Virtual Directory you always leave the data where it exists and you do not change it. This is a good and pragmatic concept. In fact, one ancestor of a virtual directory service could be found in the so- called LDAP Proxy category. Essentially, you build a thin a protocol layer and then “proxy” the query to the underlying directories (“back-ends”). So far so good. But then the story starts to take on a life of its own stretching an initial idea to the point of incorrectly redefining the entire concept of a Virtual Directory.
