Is there anything like this in the enterprise space? Many of our customers want authentication against their internal Active Directory or other single sign-on solution. It would be nice if there was a company that exported an api, and did all the work of connecting up the various types of auth, so that we can focus on our own product rather than redo integration work that has probably been done by many other companies already, probably even for the customer's other services.

- sophacles 12y agoThanks for the pointer. This particular service is useful to know about, but a bit more mobile focused than is appropriate for our current product. Noted for future reference tho!
- kriro 12y agoThere's a pretty big market for this/enterprise level identity management in general. At least in Germany, companies usually prefer inhous/more control over hosted solutions though (especially in the light of the last 1+ year). SAP IdM is the big dog here (it's somewhat messy though since SAP bought the technology and it shows that it's somewhat of a hodgepodge imo) and the only one I've worked with. I'm sure all the big ERP companies provide this in some way. Not really the API you're looking for but I thought it was worth mentioning.
