VMware Identity Appliance

Contributor(s): Tom Walat

The VMware Identity Appliance is a virtual appliance for vCloud Automation Center (vCAC) that provides vCAC with single sign-on (SSO) authentication capabilities.

The Identity Appliance is delivered in an open virtualization format (OVF) template and runs on a VMware hypervisor. This distribution model ensures that the appliance provides a uniform and stable platform, thereby simplifying testing, deployment and support.
