Paul Toal over at Identity, Security and Me posted this to encourage you to check out the demo I put up recently. (Just in case any of you are busy, it's only 3 minutes long!)
Kim Cameron has posted a really good video here explaining how user-centric identity and federation can work together. His blog and associated demonstration is shown using Microsoft CardSpace and Ping Federate from Ping Identity.
I have worked with Ping Identity for some time and was happy with the product and how it, and federation works generally. However, like Paul Squires here, I was struggling to see how it fitted within a user-centric architecture. Whilst I saw the two as complimentary, I didn’t see the link.
This video has clarified this for me and shown that there is a clear interaction between the two.
As usual Kim, thanks for a great demo! If you haven’t seem the demo yet, you HAVE to view it.
Then, following Paul Toal's link to Paul Squires at Here, Now, I came across his additional comment:
This [demo…] is well worth seeing for anyone with an interest in where digital identity is going. The demo itself shows cardspace (if there’s anyone who hasn’t seen it yet!) along with interoperability between a number of applications. The guys at Ping have done a great job with this and I’d hope this brings together these various strands of identity management (it’s certainly helped me, not least from an architectural point of view). Things are starting to look very exciting!
Update: Never one to miss out on a bit of vanity, the second open tab in the browser during the demo looks very familiar!
Gee, I'm on a roll. Just like my horoscope said, I seem to be communicating well with people named Paul.
As for Paul two's “update”, looking closely I also can see that I had been reading one of his posts the day I captured the demo. Just think. Some people are worried there will be no fingerprints in the digital world. It ain't true.
One thought on “Demo gets good reviews”
