Oracle naming convention for their products confuses a lot of people. Well, I am one of them. I recently started looking into the Fusion Applications (11.1.1.5.0) and found that the identity management is split into 2 separate installations.
One is the Oracle Identity Management and the other Oracle Identity and Access Management.
As of 11g (11.1.1.5.0)
Oracle Identity Management includes:
- Oracle Internet Directory
- Oracle Directory Integration Platform
- Oracle Virtual Directory
- Oracle Directory Services Manager
- Oracle Identity Federation
- Oracle HTTP Server (hmm...)
Oracle Identity and Access Management includes:
- Oracle Access Manager Server (also includes WebGate)
- Oracle Adaptive Access Manager
- Oracle Identity Manager
- Oracle Identity Navigator
- Oracle Security Token Service
- Oracle Entitlements Server
All of these can be logically divided in to 3 categories.
- Directory Service
- Access Management
- Identity Management
- Access Management
- Identity Management
