Sun Announces OpenSSO Express

If you are wondering why I've been so quiet for the last few weeks it's because my team has been heads-down working on the launch of OpenSSO Express, an early access version of the next release of Access Manager that is fully supported and indemnified by Sun. In short, customers that buy Sun Access Manager now also receive access to OpenSSO Express under a single license.

Customer can choose what they want to deploy. If our commercial builds have all the features you need and you want a traditional offering then use Sun Access Manager. If you are focused on innovation or key features that are not yet supported in our commercial release, but are available via OpenSSO then deploy OpenSSO Express. Regardless of what you choose you get a fully tested offering that includes Sun support and indemnification.

To help explain the benefits of this model I sat down with Redmonk's Michael Coté to discuss. Check out the podcast and let me know what you think!
