My client is looking at implementing IDM and would like to go with 7.2 verses 7.1, can you tell me when 7.2 will be in GA release?

FYI IdM 7.2 was released to GA on 31/10/2011. I guess there will be some announcements during Teched in Madrid.

Thanks everyone for the replies

Martin,

Yelp I went out to the PAM and seen there was no GA date yet that is why I posted on this forum. We were told by SAP at Sapphire it was going to be released the end of July.

Again Thanks everyone.

I wonder is a license is needed in case we use it as an account management software to manage the SAP accounts only?

Any idea?

Manuel,

IDM can connect to any type of ODBC, JDBC or LDAP repository. Additionally, with the Generic connector and the Virtual Directory, we can connecto to just about anything.

SAP does not charge for SAP based connections, but they do charge and license for all of the good stuff outside of SAP.

AFAIR, as of now GA will be in the middle of September

Most I've been able to get is aiming for Q4, 2011 with lots of qualifiers.

Personally, as much as I want to work with it, I don't want it until it is ready, so I don't mind waiting...

We're an SAP Customer who have built a solution in 7.1 but prior to integration and user acceptance testing decided to join the 7.2 ramp-up programme and re-develop the solution using the 7.2 features and new framework. We felt that moving to 7.2 before going live on 7.1 was the right thing to do for us. Upgrading from 7.1 to 7.2 is not a trivial undertaking and so if you're in a position to choose to wait for 7.2, I'd recommend that.

We've been told that Ramp-up ends on 16 September 2011, however until SAP announce a GA date, I guess this could change.

Regards,

Paul

Hi,

you can get info about any SAP product on service.sap.com/pam If you search for "identity" then you can see that ramp up for IdM 7.2 started on 13.12.2010 but unfortunately, there is no date for GA. I couldn't find any other source of info about GA. I guess even SAP does not know yet.

Cheers
