Description

Service Provider use Embedded Discovery service (EDS) to allow users to select the identity provider of their home organization to access federated services. The information needed by an EDS are extracted by a metadata aggregate, provided by identity federation. The continuous growth of eduGAIN, that increased the size of the aggregates distributed by the participating federations, has already brillantly solved by MDQ Protocol but, without the aggregate, the EDS used by the most popular SAML frameworks can't be fed anymore.
IDEM GARR AAI Federation presents its own solution for Shibboleth and SimpleSAMLphp EDS based on a JSON Web Token (JWT).
