Penrose project is a virtual directory server. A Virtual Directory technology is a fairly new approach for centralizing and reducing the amount of directories needed without the problems of physical data migration.

Instead of creating new identity repositories, virtual directory handles identity queries on a case-by-case basis, drawing the required, authorized data (and only the required data) in real time from its native repositories around a network and presenting it to an enterprise application as needed.

Virtual Directory eases deployments of Identity management solution, reduces political fights over data ownership and changes how corporate data is being managed.
