# Introduction

Personify is a lean, mean identity machine.

All the components and code are generated based on a model and templates.

It is applicable as workforce management of medium to large enterprises demanding complex use cases (IAM).

It is not really targeted for the consumer market (CIAM) but it can be used for it.

Deployment is cloud or on-premise.

It contains:

* identity vault with organisations, entitlement design and recertification
* provisioning engine with multiple connectors
* workflow engine : approval flow and selfservice
* notification engine
* schedulers
* gateway

All modules are REST based and protected by a fined grained central authentication and authorization component.

Localization is built-in.

The code is freely available.
