Oracle Unified Directory 12c: Administration Ed 2 LVC

About This Course

Oracle Unified Directory (OUD) is an enterprise-class directory solution for robust identity management deployments with its own storage, proxy, synchronization and virtualization capabilities. Targeted at Directory Administrators, Security Administrators, Support Engineers, and Web Administrators, this course covers the features, architecture, installation, and configuration of OUD 12c for storage, proxy, replication, and virtualization. The course also covers how to configure OUD security and synchronize OUD with other third-party directories by using DIP and teaches how to integrate Enterprise User Security (EUS) with Microsoft Active Directory (AD).
