Adventures in identity management
At TEC I’ll be presenting a session on migrating MIIS/ILM to FIM 2010. The meaty goodness of the session will be a collection of scripts that can help with analysing the environment ahead of the migration, with getting through some tricky migration steps that can often occur, and with general post-migration confirmations. The session should be…
Once again I’ll be off to TEC US this year, though this time travelling from Australia, and this time in the company of my collegue Bob Bradley. I’m presenting a session on MIIS/ILM migration to FIM. Not the sexiest topic I admit, but certainly one with the potential to be far knottier than you may…
I’ll be presenting the FIM breakout session at TechEd New Zealand. Hoping to see a kiwi reader or two there! http://newzealand.msteched.com/default.aspx
I will be delivering two sessions at TEC on managing BPOS and Office 365 with FIM. The first session “Head in the Clouds” will include an overview and discussion of the IdM tools available with BPOS and Office 365 and where they are (and are not!) applicable. I’ll also be giving lots of examples from…
I will be speaking at the LANexpert expertDay conference in Lausanne on the 15th of June. I will be talking about how various products in the Identity spectrum fit together, focusing in particular on how the move to Cloud applications makes local management of users and groups even more critical. I have a neat little demo where I create a…
I visited all the sposors at TEC and I particularly wanted to post about two of them as their products fit into the user provisioning and lifecycle sphere. This post is based on short demos and discussions with the company reps, so I can’t claim any knowledge about how well they would scale, or run…
At TEC you really can learn from the best. Some of the speakers may not be the most polished, but at least you know they’re talking from a position of genuine experience. My top three sessions this year were the ones where I felt I learnt the most.
I haven’t had much to post about lately as I’ve been doing a lot of work with Exchange 2003 and Symantec Enterprise Vault (cool product!) – but tomorrow I’ll be briefly back in the ILM world again, presenting at the annual conference of the company I work for. And I’m going to try and do…
The US TEC 2009 is now over, and what a great week it’s been. This was the first year that Quest were running the show, and as far as I could tell it was very much business as usual for the conference, with the welcome addition of an Exchange track to the usual Directory and…
I’m at TEC 2009 in Las Vegas at the moment, and it was officially announced by Microsoft today that the release date for ILM 2 is now Q1 2010, as opposed to the previously publicised date of “any day now”. We should be getting an RC1 version in Q3 this year. I asked if there…
