However, I will say that the new Fusion architecture that the applications are moving towards externalizes a great deal of these capabilities into a common IAM layer. This IAM component will be based on Oracle's suite of IdM products and the extended JAAS layer in the application server they run on. The support of these technologies by that security and IAM layer means that the Fusion applications would get standards-based capabilities (like SAML and SPML support) for free. CardSpace as an authentication mechanism is a little easier to incorporate in a Single Sign-On enabled environment. However, CardSpace as a lightweight federation tool is a little harder to analyze. We (in Oracle's IAM team) are currently working on the self-registration and authentication mechanisms for Fusion applications, which is where I believe CardSpace would play a role. I would be interested in learning in greater detail how you envision CardSpace being used in a Siebel environment. Would you mind providing your perspective on this? Thanks, Nishant James,
