Hi Jinghai,

You can do if you want, but that's not possible in the context of the ASF.

Also I'm for the ASL2 license as is, not to add a common clause.

Of course if you pay me for that I would :D But I guess it's a joke, isn'it?

Thank you Jacques!

Perhaps we can build a cloud-ready (SAAS version) OFBiz and add such a common 
clause :)

Hi Jinghai,

you

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].

BTW, I'll try to review the patches.

Kind Regards,

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
