UnboundID First to Deliver Identity Management for Virtualized Cloud Services Infrastructures

New Directory Services Technology Makes Virtualization Efficient and Secure for Public, Private, and Hybrid Cloud Environments

AUSTIN, Texas – November 18, 2010 — UnboundID® Corp., a developer of identity management software for Internet-driven, consumer-facing architectures, today announced that the UnboundID Directory Services Suite is the first to allow organizations to manage identities across virtualized environments. The newly VMware-certified UnboundID platform is specifically designed to support large-scale virtualized infrastructures that require secure identity management to power applications, including high-volume cloud computing and subscriber-based services.

"Until now, cloud service providers and enterprises were unable to deliver their offerings via a virtualized identity management environment," said Stephen Shoaff, co-founder and CEO of UnboundID. "As the first to deliver identity management for high-capacity virtualized environments, we look forward to helping enterprises and cloud service providers realize the additional cost-saving and performance advantages that virtualized infrastructures can deliver."

The UnboundID Directory Services Suite is designed to enable the new era of cloud identity management. UnboundID capabilities that enable virtualized cloud environments include:

• Elastic Scalability – with UnboundID, organizations can now grow or shrink identity management capacity on demand – all with significantly less investment in new hardware;
• Multi-tenancy – the UnboundID Directory Services Suite protects each individual customer's data by segmenting identity information and enabling fine-grained security controls;
• Performance at Scale – UnboundID offers the highest performing directory service in the industry by uniquely addressing all three dimensions of performance: growing numbers of users, while maintaining low latency and high transaction throughput.

UnboundID develops a new class of identity management applications designed to process billions of entries and transactions to support the demands of today's multi-channel applications, such as cloud-based systems, texting and smart phone applications. The UnboundID software solution suite includes the UnboundID Directory Server, the UnboundID Directory Proxy Server, the UnboundID Synchronization Server, as well as the industry's only updated and maintained LDAP software development toolkit – the UnboundID LDAP SDK for Java.
