Companies are now facing complexities dealing with issues such as regulatory
compliance and security while still providing for company-wide collaboration
between employees, partners, and suppliers. Identity systems are becoming a
crucial component of applications, enabling developers to take advantage of a
new set of services that know who you are, where you are, what you are trying
to do, and can adapt to your changing business needs. Identity-driven
computing addresses these problems by applying best practices learned from
Novell's leadership in identity management for the management of people to
all aspects of an enterprise, including servers, PCs, devices, applications,

services must be secure to protect the underlying business systems.
As interactions between Web service requestors and p... (more)
Without identity management, Web services can be consumed by anyone.
The challenge for Web services developers is to provide appropriate access
based on the user's identity. As identity management moves into the forefront
of technology, directory services will evolve from simple LDAP repositories
used for authentication and storage to robust engines that provide identity
integration, access management and policy enforcement.
This presentation will discuss how identity management and directory services
provide a robust solution for Web services authentication, authorization and

Building Services-Oriented applications based on Web Services require a
strong XML-based foundation for integrating applications and enabling user
interfaces. XForms is a W3C specification that specifies an XML-based
declarative language for addressing a common requirement for advanced user
interaction, data validation, and XML processing. The Portlet specification
is another XML friendly specification that standardizes the portal interface
to enable portability of portals.
This session will provide an opportunity to understand how XForms and the
Portlet specification along with ... (more)
