Osterman Research Case Study: WorldCom

Overview This case study presents an overview of WorldCom's application of iPlanet directory solutions. WorldCom found itself growing along side a myriad of acquisitions. In addition to its traditional communications business, the company needed to address new lines of business, which include the switching fabric, data multiplexing, services provisioning and some application and service provider (ASP) business. In 1994, employees recognized that the same information was stored in many places throughout their organization. Not only were there multiple sources of information, but also many conflicts about who owned the authoritative copy of that information. The solution was made to pursue directory services technology, and the company chose to deploy the University of Michigan's implementation of directory services, slapd and slurpd.
