Fast Federation (FastFed) WG

What is the Fast Federation (FastFed) WG?

Overview

The purpose of this Working Group is to develop a meta-data document specification, APIs, and workflow to enable an administrator to federate an identity provider and a hosted application that supports one or more of OpenID Connect, SAML, and SCIM and enable configuration changes to be communicated between the identity provider and hosted application.

For an overview of the goals of Fastfed and a demonstration of Fastfed working, please see this 2019 Identiverse presentation by Darin McAdams and Erik Gustavson.  Descriptions of the scenarios we address with Fastfed can be found in our bitbucket repository.
