Oracle Database Single Sign-On Made Easy - Oracle18c/19c Centrally Managed Users (CMU)

Quest Forum Digital Event 2020

An exciting new feature of Oracle Database 18c and 19c is “Centrally Managed Users” (CMU). This, for the first time, allows for simple and complete database singe sign-on (SSO) and user management integration with Microsoft Active Directory (AD). No additional licenses required!

Previously, Oracle Enterprise User Security (EUS) and Oracle Unified Directory (OUD) were needed as an intermediate component bridging the Oracle Database to Active Directory. And while EUS/OUD is still present and does offer some additional features and benefits, it’s no longer required for database-AD user integration and management.

This presentation details the advantages of using CMU over the previous technologies, covers the installation/set-up process, and gives practical examples and use cases for organizations to leverage and benefit from the simplified integration of database user management (authentication and authorization) with AD.
