IdP as a Service Working Group

[Keith Hazelton <>]

I'd like to discuss another possible recommendation:

The need for a reliable and sustainable IdP of Last Resort (IdPoLR, or unaffiliated IdP) is still out there. An IdPaas service already meets several of the requirements for such a thing.

The only new requirements would be to offer a personal, self-service registration process.

The new challenge would be finding a business model for this service. I can imagine federation operators might be willing to provide the operational budget, making the service free for individual subscribers.

What about recommending an "IdPaaS Plus" offering that included a 'home for the bomeless'.

Subject: IdPaaS call today

 

Hi all,

Looking forward to our call later today.  Today we'll plan to:

• Wrap up the survey summary at https://spaces.at.internet2.edu/display/IDPAAS/Survey+Results 
  
  
• Review deliverables for recommendations: https://spaces.at.internet2.edu/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=158662936
  
  
• Develop a game plan for how to arrive at the recommendations above.
  

Prior to the call, please review the two links above and note any places where you feel there's room for improvement on the survey summary.  Last time, we discussed correlating answers with Carnegie classifications;  it would be helpful to point out specific areas where doing this  would directly help with one or more of the recommendations.

See you soon!
Mary
