Two of the large challenges in the Identity Management market are the cost of entry and time to value.  With their announcement last week of the AegisUSA Identity Solution Continuum, our friends of AegisUSA are focusing on both of those challenges. 

I think the most innovative part of this announcement is the unveiling of appliance-based turnkey solutions "that deliver enterprise-level identity management functionality. Aegis Identity Appliances arefunctional IAM solutions configured to scale for future identity management growth and expansion. Preconfigured Appliances include Password Management, Single Sign-On (SSO), Federated Identity InCommon® Quickstart, and Google Apps Provisioning, with additional point solutions planned in the near future."

Helping companies quickly and easily accrue real value in Identity Management while building a solid foundation for future expansion is a fundamental best practice for Identity Management.  It appears that the AegisUSA approach should bring real value to customers.
