The Identity Federation Layer

« Dynamic SAML | Main | Bigger »

I really enjoy watching Patrick Harding (our CTO) think and work. He's got an incredible intuition for the future, and he's been honing his skills as a CTO for the past few years. As a small company amongst giants, it's important that we be ever on the lookout for what the future holds, and that we have a roadmap for getting us and our customers there safely.

Amongst other things, Patrick has developed a nice thesis on the parallels between what happened with 'the networking layer' and what will likely happen with 'the identity layer'. He writes about his ideas here.
