THE CHALLENGE
Fragmented Data =
High Latency + High Risk
Identity Everywhere, Control Nowhere
Getting a single view of user data that lives in AD, LDAP, CRMs, apps, and data lakes is nearly impossible. And hard to maintain.
Pressure to Perform at Scale
High-volume traffic, personalization, and consent checks require sub-millisecond response times and resilient uptime.
Scattered PII Is Risky Business
When sensitive data is spread across systems, your attack surface grows and compliance gets more complex.
THE SOLUTION
One Directory. Every Profile. Real Performance.
Bring all of your identity data together, and make it instantly available. Our directory serves up profiles via LDAP, SCIM, and REST, and our integrated proxy gives you built-in controls for load balancing, rate limiting, and data transformation. Plus, real-time bidirectional sync lets you migrate at your own pace without breaking your stack.

Frequently Asked Questions
An identity directory is a high-performance data store for user profile data. Built for modern identity use cases, it uses LDAP, SCIM, and REST to serve identity data across a variety of on-prem, cloud, and hybrid environments.
No. Your legacy apps can keep using LDAP, and your cloud services will use SCIM and REST to connect to our directory. No heavy lift needed.
Our directory offers bidirectional synchronization that you can run in real time, so you can cut over apps in phases without disruption.
Everything is encrypted in every state—at rest, in transit, and in memory. Plus, fewer copies means a smaller attack surface.
