Goal

One of the main strengths of SAML is the ability to communicate identity information across security domains that do not necessarily share the same user base. In other words, the authenticated user in one security domain does not necessarily exist in the target security domain providing the service.

Such concept is supported in all major Oracle products that consume SAML tokens: OIF, Weblogic Server and OWSM. The sole purpose of this post is to show how to configure it in these products. Setting up SAML services as a whole involves more than what’s showed here and I recommend the official product documentation for detailed steps.

I hope this can be helpful to someone out there.
