Providing High-Performance Access Management for Oracle

F5 and Oracle
SOLUTION OVERVIEW
Providing High-Performance Access
Management for Oracle
F5 and Oracle offerings
· BIG-IP Access Policy Manager
is a flexible, high-performance
access and security solution that
provides policy-based, contextaware access while simplifying
AAA management.
· BIG-IP Edge Gateway is an access
solution that brings together
SSL VPN remote access, security,
application acceleration, and
availability services for remote
and mobile users at LAN speeds.
· Oracle Access Manager uses an
innovative, integrated architecture
to uniquely combine identity
management and access control
services to provide rich delegated
identity administration and
workflows.
Organizations need to implement identity and access management solutions that
are scalable, secure, and have minimal impact on the bottom line. Removing access
management from within the application takes control out of the hands of developers,
simplifying authentication, consolidating infrastructure, and reducing costs.
By integrating F5’s application delivery capabilities and the application access features in
Oracle Access Manager, organizations can realize the value of offloading authentication
control and simplifying architecture. With the combination of Oracle Access Manager
(OAM) and F5 BIG-IP® Access Policy Manager™ (APM) access and security solution or the
F5 BIG-IP® Edge Gateway ™ advanced remote access solution, CapEx and OpEx savings
are increased by consolidating infrastructure and easing management. Organizations can
employ either BIG-IP APM or BIG-IP Edge Gateway to manage policy-based access from
one location and to dramatically improve the scalability of access control.
Competitive Advantages
F5 and Oracle deliver a unified access and authorization solution, simplifying access to
Oracle applications. By consolidating authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA)
and policy control on F5 BIG-IP® devices, IT managers can reduce deployment complexity.
A centralized, granular access control point on BIG-IP devices and a simplified method
for repeatable access policies improves network identity and security. BIG-IP devices
remove the need for OAM agents on proxy web servers, streamlining the application
authentication process. Lastly, BIG-IP devices provide a consistent methodology to create
a highly available web tier.
