リリース直前！FIM2010関連のWebcast

リリースを目前に控えたForefront Identity Manager 2010ですが、リリースを控えていよいよ盛り上がってきました。

ということで、TechNetのWebcastが3月～4月で4回開催されます。

いずれも日本時間では夜中なので非常にしんどいですが・・・

－TechNet Webcast: Forefront Identity Manager 2010: Monitoring and Troubleshooting FIM in Production (Level 300)

－内容（トラブルシューティング。こういうのが出てくるといよいよリリース、という感じです）

Microsoft Forefront Identity Manager (FIM) 2010 includes rich features across multiple platforms. Troubleshooting FIM requires broad domain knowledge of technologies such as Active Directory, Microsoft SharePoint, Microsoft Exchange Server, SQL, Windows Communication Foundation, Windows Workflow Foundation, and Microsoft Identity Lifecycle Manager (ILM) 2007. In this webcast, we walk you through how to manage FIM in a production environment by showing common troubleshooting approaches, migrating configuration, and common resolutions. The webcast is appropriate for IT professionals who plan to configure or administer FIM for customers.

◆3月30日（日本時間3月31日AM2:00～3:00）

－TechNet Webcast: Forefront Identity Manager 2010: Deploying FIM (Level 300)

－内容（構築関連。キャパシティプランニングなど有用な情報となりそうです）

Microsoft Forefront Identity Manager (FIM) 2010 is a powerful platform that can satisfy many customer requirements for identity and access management. In this webcast, we cover Forefront Identity Manager capacity planning, project planning, and best practice configurations from the product team. We provide best practices for deploying FIM, share FIM deployment experiences from Microsoft Technology Adoption Program (TAP) customers and Microsoft IT, and address common questions like capacity planning.

◆4月5日（日本時間4月6日AM2:00～3:00）

－TechNet Webcast: Forefront Identity Manager 2010: Extending FIM (Level 300)

－内容（SDKなどを使ったFIMの拡張）

Most customers have requirements that cannot be solved by configuring Microsoft Forefront Identity Manager (FIM) 2010 alone. For these customers, it is necessary to extend the FIM platform with custom activities, portals, schema, Resource Control Display Configurations (RCDCs), and management agents. In this webcast, we present the FIM software development kit (SDK) road map so you can best choose which extensibility point to use. We cover best practices of creating, testing, and deploying those extensions for your customers using real-world examples from Technology Adoption Program (TAP) customers and Microsoft IT. About half of the webcast is devoted to the workflow host and writing custom workflow activities. This webcast is appropriate for IT professionals who are already familiar with FIM.

ずべて日本時間では深夜、かつ英語という厳しい条件ですが、早期導入などの結果に基づくキャパシティ情報や拡張に関する話など、今後FIMの展開をする上では必須となりそうな情報が満載のようですので、がんばって聴きたいと思います。
