Evolveum Tackles IGA Application Onboarding at Gartner IAM Summit
Evolveum, an innovative company specializing in open-source Identity Governance and Administration (IGA), recently made waves at the Gartner Identity & Access Management Summit 2026 held in London. During this prestigious event, the company presented its groundbreaking technologies and discussed the pressing challenges surrounding application onboarding in IGA processes.
Addressing the Complexity of IGA
The spotlight was on Chief Product Officer Pavol Mederly, who delivered a compelling presentation titled 'The Hidden Cost of Slow Application Onboarding in IGA.' Mederly highlighted a significant pain point for many organizations: the time-consuming and complicated process of integrating business applications into IGA platforms. To tackle this issue, Evolveum showcased its latest feature, midPilot, an AI-powered onboarding assistant ingeniously integrated within the midPoint platform. MidPilot streamlines the configuration and mapping processes, thereby significantly accelerating deployment timelines and lowering the overall cost of ownership for users.
Mederly emphasized, "The engagement at the event confirms that the market is exhausted by the complexity of application onboarding in IGA. MidPilot demonstrates that identity security can be both scalable and rapid when you leverage the flexibility of open source."
A Shift Towards Open-Source Solutions
One key takeaway from the summit was the noteworthy shift among organizations moving away from proprietary IGA solutions. Many businesses are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of digital sovereignty, which encompasses concerns about vendor lock-in, data residency, and the need for transparent identity infrastructure. Mederly stressed, "We are seeing a fundamental change in how organizations evaluate identity security investments. Sovereignty over your identity infrastructure is no longer a nice-to-have; it is a strategic requirement."
Upcoming Event: 2nd Annual MidPoint Community Meetup
Following the significant discussions at the Gartner Summit, Evolveum is excited to announce its 2nd Annual MidPoint Community Meetup slated for May 12–15, 2026, in Prague. This event is designed to foster collaboration and knowledge exchange among identity professionals, the midPoint community, and the Evolveum team. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage in hands-on learning through practical sessions focused on identity governance strategies, real-world midPoint deployments, and the latest platform enhancements, including midPilot.
Mederly remarked, "While the Gartner Summit allowed us to share the 'why' of modern IGA, our community meetup is where we show the 'how.'"
