Federated Access Manager (FAM) is the only open source solution in the market that provides web access management, federated single sign-on and web services security in a single, self-contained Java application. Through a single product users can create federated mashups from internal and partner applications and web services to create a single view for the end-user. FAM allows customers to quickly and inexpensively extend business reach while maintaining high security standards, which, simultaneously, reduces company risk. OpenSSO (http://opensso.org/) is a Sun Microsystems-sponsored open source project providing core identity functionality such as single sign-on (SSO), federation and identity Web services. The project is based on the code base of Sun Java System Access Manager and will form the basis for Sun Federated Access Manager 8, the next commercial product release. As well as enterprise-focused standards such as SAML 2.0, XACML and WS-Federation, OpenSSO includes protocols such as OpenID and Information Cards as Extensions - community-based sub-projects. Customers no longer need to purchase and deploy multiple products to solve their WAM, federation and web services security problems. Instead, FAM provides a: Single License Single Distribution Single Deployment Single Customer View Customers are able to reduce the cost of securing identities accessing all application, web services and partner resources and, simultaneously, create federated mash-ups that provide a single view to the end-user.
Sun provides comprehensive support for OpenSSO, the worlds largest open source identity project that provides fully featured single sign-on, federation management and web services security capabilities in a single Java distribution. Customers needing access to a simple, open web access management and federation solution with extranet scale should buy Sun's Federated Access Manager and they will also receive full support for Open SSO at no additional cost. Customers who purchase Federated Access Manager, Sun's commercial version of OpenSSO, will now be entitled to the commercial product, which is released approximately every 12 months, and OpenSSO Express Stable Builds, which are released approximately every 2 months. This move is in response to demand from both Sun Access Manager customers and OpenSSO community members who requested support for OpenSSO rather than waiting for the next commercial product release. Customer Evidence: BBC BBC learned about OpenSSO via the OpenSSO project. They did not engage Sun sales. They did everything from development, testing, and deployment to production on their own and then approached Sun for a license and support. They plan to manage SSO and federation for more than 60 million users. Alcatel-Lucent ALU is using OpenSSO stable builds to develop the next generation of their Datagrid product so that it contains the latest and greatest federation features. In particular, they are interested in FAM's Security Token Service, WS-Security and WS-Trust protocols and federation multiprotocol hub capabilities. ALU wants to be embed Sun's latest and greatest technology. As a result, they are developing the Datagrid solution using OpenSSO Express Stable builds and plan to embed FAM 8 when it becomes available in September 2008. Metavie Blue Cross In October 2008, BCC plans to upgrade their existing Sun identity infrastructure and has decided they want the latest features and capabilities that will be part of Federated Access Manager 8, which releases in September 2008. BCC is particularly interested in Sun's new web services capabilities including FAM's Security Token Service. BCC has been using the OpenSSO Express Stable and has come across no problems or issues. They also receive full support and indemnification on the OpenSSO builds and do not have to wait for Sun Federated Access Manager 8 to begin implementing their solution and take advantage of it's features.
