Oracle and Wipro Technologies have announced Managed Identity Services. The new managed service offering is built on Oracle Identity Management, a component of Oracle Fusion Middleware, and helps organisations reduce identity management related costs and streamline regulatory compliance across the enterprise.

Managed Identity Services claims to provide SLA-based guaranteed managed services for the operation, deployment, subsequent enhancement and management of a customer's identity management infrastructure. The offering couples Oracle's identity and access management functionality with service and management from Wipro and spans key functional areas including user provisioning, directory services, access control, enterprise single sign-on and identity federation.

Managed Identity Services supports the lifecycle of a customer's identity management initiative and is implemented in a series of stages that are designed to ultimately automate the system and empower the organisation to decrease their dependency on Wipro over time.
