Resource Manager Service

The Resource Manager Service provides a set of resources that provide access to various types of security providers: identity, credential, and authentication.

Identity, credential, and authentication providers enable clients and servers to assert and establish identity. Identity provider provides access based on credentials or token. Services such as Subject Identity Provider provides access to a username and password stored in a keystore. The Trust provider maintains the identity of a trusted resource.

The Credential Service provider provides access to private credentials and public certificates. Password Credential Resource provides a mechanism of storing username and passwords. Keystore Credential Resource stores passwords in a keystore. The Login Credential Resource is used to generate key alias and key passwords.

The Authentication providers enable connections to authentication services such as LDAP Authentication, Kerberos Authentication, SiteMinder, and WSS Authentication.

Every resource manager service comes with create, update, and delete options.
