I believe there are better solutions to provide central authentication
authority functions.

>ps: good look finding any good examples for providers for those services.

I wouldn't want my Business Application eco-system to be the authentication
provider for (tens of) thousands of users for other websites (and
functions) and have my computer resources consumed for that process and
thus proposing risks to me doing my business or to the tenants that use my
system.

Please also look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenID regarding the
controversies before deciding on this.
