Configurable Connectivity

360-degree configurable connectivity for the hybrid platform

Modern IGA connectivity needs to be fast, reliable and continuously adaptable to take full advantage of the new opportunities that the thousands of new SaaS solutions introduced annually provide. This is a key component of any IGA implementation and program.

By migrating the repeated development effort in the creation of static connectors into a Configurable Connectivity Framework, the capabilities that are used again and again are now available in a more agile, flexible manner. This enables dynamic establishment of connectivity to both existing and new IT systems and applications.

Omada Configurable Connectivity Offers

• Template-driven Configurable Connectivity Framework for ease of implementation
• Flexible data model
• Adaptable and extensible data fields and attributes
• Choice of multiple authentication methods

A configurable connectivity approach provides an efficient, reliable and fast alternative that is better suited to the dynamic, hybrid IT environment where connectivity is a continuous activity. This approach is also part of the Omada Accelerator Package that helps deploy cloud identity management within 12 weeks.

Leading IT systems and applications will increasingly be cloud-based and will be accompanied by a growing number of additional SaaS applications, all of which need to be integrated into the IGA solution.

With organizations churning through more than 30% of SaaS applications each year, integration also becomes a continuous effort.

This requires a modern IGA connectivity approach designed to support fast and reliable integrations. Configurable connectivity provides a dynamic and flexible alternative to traditional IGA connectivity approaches that rely heavily on code development. As part of the Omada approach, customers can benefit from a straightforward, wizard-based approach for onboarding new systems.

Future Proof Connector Templates

Instead of static, code-developed connectors that require programming expertise to develop and maintain, the template-driven approach of the configurable connectivity framework enables administrators to establish connectivity more efficiently. Pre-defined connector templates are available supporting the most common, market-leading IT systems and applications with out-of-the-box, pre-defined data models and field mappings that can be configured, adapted and extended to match the target system implementation.

Out of the Box Omada Connectors

Omada offers out of the box connectors to many of the most used business-critical applications and systems. These include:

Learn From, and Engage with Peers in the Connectivity Community

With a whopping 65 new business critical applications added to the average organization over the past 2 years, having a partner in IGA to help support this scale is critical.

Within the Omada Connectivity Community, Omada customers can submit and leverage connectivity packages for cloud and on-premises applications built on Omada’s rich protocol-based integration framework. As part of the Connectivity Community, you will have a chance to:

• Submit Connectivity packages that your organization has started or implemented
• Download Connectivity packages that have been submitted by peers from within existing Omada deployments
• View descriptions and details of supported versions, data types, and operations for each package

All packages leverage Omada’s standard protocol support for SOAP, REST, OData, SCIM, LDAP or other to allow for configuration to adapt to specific functionality required, but without the need for custom code development.
