Pilot Description
The goal of this pilot is to onboard the CTA community on federated identity in a larger, broader meaning - moving from a stand-alone solution based on IdP to a fully federated one as a possible long term goal. In the meanwhile, short terms goals for the pilot are the implmentation of the TIER-like components ( COMANAGE, GROUPER) and a IDP/SP proxy to work in a synergic way for the CTA AAI.
Identity linking between the IDs of the current standalone CTA IDP and the eduGAIN ones are a relevant goal for this pilot.
