Dear Jacques, On how to store the Tokens, as a token is a key, value is the UserLogin entity and/or other info, a key-value db, Redis[1] is a good choice. Redis is no.7 in db ranking in Aug 2018[2], becomes more and more popular. Goldman Sachs invested Redis team in last year[3]. It's common view now in China that Redis is better than any others including Gemfire of Pivotal, the railway ticket system of China replaced its 3 Gemfire clusters with 3 Redis clusters last year and then there are much less complains on how difficulties to buy spring festival tickets.
Mr. Dai Haipeng contributed a Redis component in Jira[4].

Kind Regards, Shi Jinghai -----邮件原件----- 发件人: Jacques Le Roux [mailto:jacques.le.r...@les7arts.com] 发送时间: 2018年8月15日 15:09 收件人: dev@ofbiz.apache.org 主题: OFBIZ-10307: Navigate from a domain to another with automated signed in authentication Hi, Some time ago I created https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-10307. I asked for reviews but only Taher answered and he asked to know the goal of this new feature. It was actually developed for a client who needed to get from one OFBiz instance on a server (on a domain) to another OFBiz instance on another server (on another domain) without having to sign up between the 2 while keeping things secure. There could be many reasons why you want to split OFBiz application on servers. In their case it was for performance issues. The technology used is as secure as possible. Like OAuth 2.0 it uses a token but it does not need a middle authorization server (think to two-factor authentication) because it's only for OFBiz instances of the same version. To commit this work we need 1st to agree an commit the work done by Deepak at OFBIZ-9833 "Token Based Authentication" that I use in my last patch. For me there is only one question outstanding: how to store the Token secret. But this should not prevent us to commit Deepak's work. It's now a long time (9 months) since I started this work. And my last patch is ready for a month. I crossed several issues which are now all resolved. So please review and answer to this thread. Without negative comments well argumented I'll commit both OFBIZ-9833 and OFBIZ-10307 in a week. You can always test and review later, we use RTC. Also a veto on a commit is always possible... Of course, as ever, a good consensus is preferred. Let me know if you need more information about the goal. For the technical details I think I already provided them the in OFBIZ-10307. Jacques
