Albino Pereira, A., Bosco M.Sobral, J., Merkle Westphall, C..  2014.  Towards Scalability for Federated Identity Systems for Cloud-Based Environments. New Technologies, Mobility and Security (NTMS), 2014 6th International Conference on. :1-5.

As multi-tenant authorization and federated identity management systems for cloud computing matures, the provisioning of services using this paradigm allows maximum efficiency on business that requires access control. However, regarding scalability support, mainly horizontal, some characteristics of those approaches based on central authentication protocols are problematic. The objective of this work is to address these issues by providing an adapted sticky-session mechanism for a Shibboleth architecture using CAS. This alternative, compared with the recommended shared memory approach, shown improved efficiency and less overall infrastructure complexity.
