Business benefits

IBM Tivoli Directory Server is a powerful and authoritative enterprise directory infrastructure that is a critical enabler for enterprise security.

Tivoli Directory Server provides the identity data foundation for IBM Tivoli integrated identity management and plays a key role in building the enterprise identity data infrastructure for Tivoli identity management services. The strong scalability and flexibility offered by Tivoli Directory Server can benefit third-party applications as well as IBM solutions for which Tivoli Directory Server is the default directory infrastructure, such as IBM WebSphere Application Server, IBM WebSphere Portal, IBM Tivoli Identity Manager, IBM Tivoli Access Manager, and the AIX operating system.

Tivoli Directory Server plays a critical role in creating trusted systems that help firms deploy a security infrastructure and embrace Web services that open up their internal processes to suppliers and customers.
