Ivan Masár updated DS-1547: --------------------------- Status: Volunteer Needed (was: Received) > Don't store user data if we can get them from external source when needed > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DS-1547 > URL: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1547 > Project: DSpace > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Mark H. Wood > > Authentication providers like LDAP and Shibboleth can also be used as > identity providers. But we just capture all that stuff and salt it away in > our database, where it can go out of sync. with the authoritative data. > We should split authentication and identity more effectively, and push > provision of things like phone numbers and email into pluggable identity > providers (which might be the same code as the authn providers). When you > ask an EPerson for its phone number, it should see which identity provider it > uses and call that to get its response. LDAP for example would then go look > it up in the directory and hand that up the chain. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
