Overview

The Ping Identity Platform is the only offering for access management, identity management, user-managed access, directory services, and an identity gateway, designed and built as a single, unified platform.

The platform serves as the basis for our simple and comprehensive Identity and Access Management solution. We help our customers deepen their relationships with their customers, and improve the productivity and connectivity of their employees and partners.

The Common REST API works across the platform to provide common ways to access web resources and collections of resources.

This is not a comprehensive platform implementation guide. These sample setup instructions show a minimal integration of platform components to get you started.

The Ping Identity Platform offers maximum extensibility and flexibility in self-managed deployments. The platform includes many features and options these sample setup instructions do not cover. If you don’t need maximum extensibility and flexibility, there are simpler alternatives:

To consume the platform as a service, use PingOne Advanced Identity Cloud.
To deploy in Kubernetes, start with the ForgeOps reference implementation.

For help with your deployment and to validate your plans before deploying in production, contact Ping Identity.
