Tivoli software solutions for WebSphere

Management Integration

Achieving success in today's business world often means being able to transact and communicate with a broad constituency of employees, partners, and customers. WebSphere infrastructure software enables companies to reach these constituencies through distributed networks and applications. In doing so, however, a layer is added to IT infrastructures, increasing system complexity and creating the necessity of integrating and managing a business' Web-based environment in addition to their IT infrastructure.

Tivoli software solutions for WebSphere intelligently integrate systems, networks, and components, providing WebSphere customers with a single view to manage their traditional network, together with their Web-enabled network. These solutions can help businesses get users, systems, and applications online, productive, and secure fast — reducing costs and maximizing ROI. This suite of solutions automates and simplifies the management of user identities, access rights, and privacy policies across the e-business infrastructure. Importantly, these solutions can leverage your current systems, eliminating redundant components and improving business interactions. Processes are automated, information access decision-making is unified and regulatory requirements are satisfied, resulting in lower costs, a more secure posture, passed audits, enhanced IT service levels, and a better user experience. This allows WebSphere-enabled businesses to:

• Access an integrated view all infrastructure events, including system, application, network, and security events through an integrated management console which consolidates management, as well as simplifies administration of access control policies.
• Support centralized, integrated user identity and access management across the e-business infrastructure, including both new and existing applications.
• Maintaining and managing multiple identity sources is costly.
• Integrate seamlessly with other IBM core technologies.
• Gain an integrated view of their infrastructure by business system or business process.
• Integrate seamlessly with other IBM core technologies, from IBM WebSphere Application Server to WebSphere MQ, IBM Tivoli Directory Server and Lotus® Domino™.
