Overview
SOA3 Connector is the implementation if the architectural module described in GCube_Security_Handler: it is a complex element composed by a client module and a server module. The client module is composed by:
- common-security library
- gcube-server-security-integration library
it is integrated in the container, provides a caching mechanism and acts as client for SOA3 Connector Service (this is the reason of its name).
The server module is SOA3 Connector Service: it exposes a single REST interface allowing clients to obtain authentication and authorization. If required, it contacts SOA3 Authentication and Authorization Services, but these operations are limited by a caching mechanism.
