What Watts can do for you

WaTTS accepts federated identities (via OpenID Connect) and uses a plugin scheme to generate credentials for your service. This allows you to provide services that do not normally support federated identities to federated users.

And the best is that plugins for common services already exist. They can be used as examples to support additional services.

Existing plugins are available for

SSH, SSH-CA
S3 storage (commercial DDN appliance)
OpenNebula cloud middleware
X.509 online certificate authorities (CAs)
