Hi, I'm Daniel.
I run product management here at ForgeRock.
And I'm Jamie.
I run engineering here at ForgeRock, And we are continuing our little series of telling you about all the new features that are Coming out in our new Platform release.
This video is focused on our Identity-Management-IDM object model.
So Jamie, maybe you could talk a little bit about what our Identity-Management-IDM object model is before we Get into kind of the what's new.
So, as many of you know, IDM is a product we built from the ground up over the last few Years at ForgeRock.
It is our next-generation object resource based Architecture.
And when we essentially build it, Even though the focus was a provisioning solution, we built it with a Generic Object Model.
And over the years, we have, we've basically Taken that object model to the next level, now building it to meet some things like IoT and more relationship-type problems.
So when, when you talk about that, when we say a generic Object Model, If you think about the old world of Identity, it was all built around users.
So user, User, User, User.
What we're seeing now is it may not always be a user.
It could be a set-top box, it could be a car, it could be a tablet or a mobile device, and our Identity-Management-IDM solution treats them all as generic objects that can be managed.
I guess the key thing in the new release is on top of being able to map that all out in your Database, we want to have a visual way of actually seeing all those relationships, Kind of having a visual way of seeing identity relationship management in action, And we have this wonderful object model, and now we can show it off.
Yes, so the idea here is you have our user, we'll call him John.
And this user has all kinds of other objects that they are related to, So they might have gone through a device pairing with a MobileIron phone, And you want to kind of draw that relationship, And there may be a tablet, Yes, that's a modern tablet.
They may have a relationship to their TV or a set-top box.
They may have a relationship to a car.
And, in fact, These devices may have relationships to other users as well.
And essentially with the object model, you want to be able to with a Visualizer, You want to be able to navigate through all these relationships to see how those Relationships work.
And so that's kind of cool in IBM that you can now pull this up and you have a graph kind of View where you can kind of navigate through these things and see them.
The happened.
Yeah, and so in IDM as well there's this new Feature in within the Console that allows you to create your own dashboard.
So you get a dashboard out of the box, and now you can go in and pick and choose all these Different widgets to create your own custom dashboard that you can name so you can have Multiple.
One of those widgets is the Relationship Graph, Uh, widget, and that's simply how you do that.
You would, You go in, you, you would go in and model this, For example, These would all be objects in the new object model.
These would be relationship objects.
And you would enable this new widget.
It would go in; basically, you'd point it at this User.
It would read in all the relationships and Display all the objects and drag them around, and it's a really cool little widget fashion.
It makes identity fun.
It does make identity fun.
Well, thank you again, Jamie.
All right, thank you.
That's a wrap.
