Guys, today I’m back with some interesting stuff, as most of you have been listening about FIM, Forefront Identity Manager 2010, it’s a new addition to Forefront family, and with my point of view, after looking at FIM first time, I had to say that Anti-Microsoft, people must should have look at FIM, it’s just a magic stick doing all ADDS and Identity Management Automatically, and specially for ERP Applications, like SAP ECC, SAP HR, it’s something which my company experienced and we found it as great source for managing our Employee information consistent everywhere.

    Hi Prem,

    For your first question about “Videos / Podcasts”, I would like to direct you to the below link, which is a FIM Team Blog, which has verity of latest pocasts and training videos uploaded:
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/forefront/

    Additionally, this below link will also provide you all the training videos, which may be interested for you:

    For answering your second part of question, where you mentioned that where should we use FIM Portal, where FIMSYNC is taking care of things autometically, then I would say, keeping data in portal is the essential part of FIM working, but there are scenarios, where an Administrator, needs to update certain values and data on portal, which sometimes other entities, such as AD (Data sources) are failing to complete, and usage of FIM Portal, would be to provide an interface for end users to get resgister themself for password reset, allowing them to search users, change their office location, and based on your configuration, you may use it for more purposes.

    Do leeme know, if you need to know more about this.

    I’d also suggest, keep your eyes on http://blogs.technet.com/b/forefront/ , its a nifty source for keeping your FIM skills update.

    * I’m an Exchange guy, and therefore, I still have limited knowledge and information about FIM, and this post, I brought up for my readers, because, I found it quite good.
