title: Suggestions needed for replacement of Oracle SSO 10g in an 11g environment
body: <p>We're currently using the SSO component of Oracle 10g App Server to authenticate users on our external / internet facing client "portal" (think similar to online banking)</p>
  
  <p>SSO uses Oracle Internet Directory to store it's data, and we've been able to use PL/SQL and Java to access and modify the data held in OID (e.g create/drop users, change/verify passwords etc)</p>
  
  <p>With the advent of 11g, Oracle appears to have "orphaned" SSO… it is available, but only as an add-on, and it appears to have been superseded by Oracle Access Manager.  I'm guessing that it will have been dropped together by 12g.  Plus it looks pretty difficult to install and get running correctly.</p>
  
  <p>So, I'm wondering if anyone has any experience of having had the same migration problem as us?  If so, what did you do?</p>
  
  <p>Alternatively, does anyone have any experience of doing something similar using Oracle Access Manager?  Do you think it will do what we want?</p>
  
  <p>Or is there a better road to go down?  Is there something else I should be considering?</p>
  
  <p>Sorry for the very broad question, but it's one of those situations where a person's experience of what does + doesn’t work can make an enormous difference to us making some progress in a timely fashion.  Thanks.</p>
