Sun Microsystems announced the immediate availability of the Sun Open Net Environment (Sun ONE) Platform for Network Identity. The Sun ONE Platform is a combined software, hardware, and services offering from Sun for organizations to establish an open, end-to-end network identity infrastructure rapidly. Sun-iPlanet’s LDAP Directory Server has been a key differentiator due its acceptance as the industry standard and its pervasive footprint, with over 400 million licenses worldwide. The company effectively leverages its dominant market position in directory services to try to secure its control over network identity services.”]
