Idea / RFE Review. Apologies for the length of time this idea has been in the status of Uncommitted Candidate / Future Consideration. SAML tokens remain a widely used and strategic standard. We note that frequently ACE tends to prefer call outs to an external STS to authenticate tokens rather than doing things "in-house", so when this gets to the top of the list we will look closely at this aspect. Status is maintained as Future Consideration.
Due to processing by IBM, this request was reassigned to have the following updated attributes:
Brand - WebSphere
Product family - Integration
Product - IBM Integration Bus (WebSphere Message Broker) - IIB
For recording keeping, the previous attributes were:
Brand - WebSphere
Product family - Connectivity and Integration
Product - IBM Integration Bus (WebSphere Message Broker) - IIB
Thank you for raising this RFE. We appreciate that, in particular, for the first "IIB as a Service Provider" use case, having IIB internally capable of validating the SAML token provided by the inbound reequest would add value for these kind of scenarios rather than implementing some kind of call-out from the IIB flow to an external (eg WS-Trust) validation facility. Status of this RFE is updated to Uncommitted Candidate.
