<div><p>Use this information learn about important EIM concepts that you
need to understand to implement EIM successfully.</p>
<p>A conceptual understanding of how Enterprise Identity Mapping (EIM) works
is necessary to fully understand how you can use EIM in your enterprise. Although
the configuration and implementation of EIM APIs can differ among server platforms,
EIM concepts are common across IBM<sup>®</sup> <img src="eserver.gif" alt="e(logo)server" /> platforms.</p>
<p>Figure 1 provides an EIM implementation example in an enterprise. Three
servers act as EIM clients and contain EIM-enabled applications that request
EIM data using EIM lookup operations <img src="eimcall6.gif" alt="Refer to number 6 in Figure 1" />. The domain controller <img src="eimcall1.gif" alt="Refer to number 1 in Figure 1" /> stores information about the EIM domain <img src="eimcall2.gif" alt="Refer to number 2 in Figure 1" />, which includes
an EIM identifier <img src="eimcall3.gif" alt="Refer to number 3 in Figure 1" />, associations <img src="eimcall4.gif" alt="Refer to number 4 in Figure 1" /> between these EIM identifiers and user identities, and EIM registry
definitions <img src="eimcall5.gif" alt="Refer to number 5 in Figure 1" />.</p>
