This runs VMs, Sandstorm runs OS containers. Apps for Sandstorm might need a little work to integrate with Sandstorm's model for users and permissions, but apps in Portal won't have a built-in mechanism for sharing documents/data and will each have individual authentication, I assume.
- staunch 12y agoPortal will have a method for sharing data between apps, but it's not there yet. For authentication, apps can run an HTTP server on a special port, which will be proxied to the user pre-authenticated. That might change before launch, but it's fairly simple. In the case of apps that publish public URLs (like WordPress) they can choose to use Portal's single sign on or not.
- rdrey 12y agoCool, thanks for the clarification. Glad you're building a single sign on feature!
