FIM Feature Overlap With Sentillion
Does anyone care to speculate how Microsoft will handle overlap in features between FIM and Sentillion? For one I am curious about the self service password reset offered in both tools. If you are not familiar with Sentillion it's a newly aquired MS company. http://www.sentillion.com/ Does FIM offer single sign on capabilities also?

FIM does not offer application SSO, like Sentillon does. Sentillion recognizes different kind of logon screens of applications and proxies a credential to the application. Sentillion is working on the front-end of the applications (GUI logons , while FIM rather works on the backend, synchronizing data between the actual data sources..

Thanks Peter. I saw a post somewhere that mentioned ILM has SSO? I am not familiar with ILM. Do you feel like MS will keep password reset in both Sentillion and FIM? John Marcum | http://myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/jmarcum |

I've actually used ILM to populate Sentillion before, demonstrating that the two are complimentary. Yet another XMA ;-)CraigMartin Edgile, Inc. http://identitytrench.com

Craig, I don't really know anything about ILM. Can you please elaborate on how it complements Sentillion? John Marcum | http://myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/jmarcum |
