Evolveum midPoint

Evolveum midPoint is an open source identity management and governance system for synchronizing identity repositories, managing roles and permissions, and governing access. It can automatically create and manage user accounts, groups, and organizational units. Users can request application access through a role catalog, with policies routing requests for approval before roles are assigned. Access certification campaigns let reviewers assess whether access remains necessary and support remediation. Administrators can inspect an audit trail of operations involving identity objects, roles, policies, and configuration. The connector catalog includes LDAP, Active Directory, database tables, and CSV files, among other sources. MidPoint is a Java application that can be deployed on Linux, Windows, or macOS; Linux is recommended, and macOS is not supported for production use. For version 4.10 and later, PostgreSQL is the only supported production database. The plan is free, with no license fee, but clustering and selected features require an active support subscription. Evolveum also offers paid third-level product support, with Product Support service levels of 8×5 next business day or 24×7.
