OpenID Connect Server #4

Closed m-mohr closed 3 years ago

m-mohr commented 6 years ago

We may want to have a central OpenID Connect (OIDC) server for openEO back-ends. They could rely on that instead of external companies in case they don't want to implement their own OIDC server. Should be it's own microservice for security reasons.

Comment from the #GEODataTech:

Clouds should be interoperable. In addition to this, a sort of Cloud-single-sign-on should be set-up

That could be the openEO OIDC ;-) On the other hand, we may just connect to any SSO system that GEOSS, CEOS, ... offer and then we don't need to set-up one ourself.

@backeb mentioned:

For SSO for Cloud Services, see: https://aarc-project.eu/architecture/ https://www.egi.eu/services/check-in/ https://www.egi.eu/federation/egi-federated-cloud/

The solution converges towards EGI checkin, which has far more resources and experience and already integrates a lot of institutions, including WWU. So I think we can close this and can consider integrating EGI checking via OIDC at some point.
