In this week’s episode of the ID Element Vittorio interviews Donovan Follette… as the guest!

Donovan is a senior technical evangelist and a host for this very show: he worked on identity since he joined Microsoft in 2005, and is a well known expert in the ADFS community. In this episode Vittorio talks with Donovan about the relationship between ADFS and Geneva Server: Donovan explains in details how to map the old terminology to the new concepts introduced in Geneva, focusing on differences and similarities in the two approaches, and in general equipping today’s  ADFS expert with everything he or she needs for hitting the ground running with Geneva Server.

If ADFS is only used by the ( degrees ) Relying Party partner in the federation, the tool can still be used to diagnose configuration problems between the STS and the application server. One of Microsoft’s premier support engineers has posted the tool and provided a space for customers to ask questions and provide feedback. He has high praise for how easy it is to perform low-level diagnostics of the complete distributed system.

( cheap degrees and affordable degree)

To the end you mentioned that the  AD attributes gets transformed into claims using script/rule engine.

 

Can those transformmed attribute be used by end client application for authZ decision?

I like how Donovan explains how to map the old terminology to the new concepts. There are both differences and similarities with Geneva Server but she explains really clarly. Thank you for the information.
