SSO demo - Liferay Portal & Salesforce SSO with PingFederate

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

Warm the set and cool the tinnies, it’s time to check out our latest video.

I know, our timing is bad.  The oscars are over and here we are releasing a potential blockbuster - the day after.  Speculation in the office is rife that we felt the competition was too steep (and this ain’t no Avatar), but you can be the judge of that.

This time it’s SSO using PingIdentity’s PingFederate.  We’re doing SSO to a Liferay Portal plus Salesforce CRM & Portal.  Check it out: http://www.wdcigroup.net/video/Liferay-Salesforce_SSO_demo.htm.

Forget LDAP, do you want to use Salesforce as your identity store for your SaaS SSO?

Thursday, February 11th, 2010

You can.

Ping Identity allows you to universally login to your SaaS applications, using Salesforce as your user identity store.

No need to install, configure, manage, maintain and backup a local Active Directory or LDAP user store if you don’t want to, just have Salesforce manage the user identities.

What does this mean?

  • You can use Salesforce as your source of user information and login credentials for your other SaaS and Internet applications.
  • Users login to the Salesforce portal, then directly access their other Internet-based applications by simply clicking a link.
  • No further authentication is required, minimizing login failures and password resets.

Our CTO (Walter Dewildt) captures the benefits well - “”With Ping Identity’s Universal Login, Salesforce becomes the hosted identity provider, reducing license, infrastructure and ongoing maintenance costs of traditional identity stores, while leveraging the Salesforce platform’s reliability and security.”
