when to use Authorization Manager (AzMan)

Authorization Manager (AzMan) enables you to define individual operations, which can be grouped together to form tasks. You can then authorize roles to perform specific tasks and/or individual operations. AzMan provides an administration tool as a Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in to manage roles, tasks, operations, and users. You can configure an AzMan policy store in an XML file, Active Directory, or in an Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM) store.
ASP.NET version 2.0 role management provides an API that enables you to manage application roles and users' membership of roles. By configuring the ASP.NET role manager to use the AuthorizationStoreRoleProvider, you can use the role management API against an AzMan policy store.
The AuthorizationStoreRoleProvider does not support AzMan business rules ("BizRules"), which are scripted extensions to authorization checks, because the current role manager implementation does not have the concept of extended data that can be passed along during an authorization check. To use AzMan BizRules, you need to use COM interop
