Now as we already know what extranets are, there are some common features that every extranet requires. Like if I talk about multinationals, then every multinational has several hosted solutions to improve their business productivity and they are investing huge in integrating these solutions to their websites. Now setting up several applications might be tedious task, but real challenge is to convert those multiple login areas into a single secure login known as SSO(single sign on). I was working with an OEM brand and they have several web portals running like Training
Portal, Web Conferencing System, Education Portal, ERP, CRM, Support Portal, Blog, Forum, Content Server, shopping cart and corporate website and all these modules required a separate login for each module. We worked with full dedication to execute single sign on. SSO should be the requirement of every business in coming years as no body will have time to remember separate login details for making inputs to multiple sections of their company website. And this single sign on needs to be a secure authentication that should be performed using one time passwords using crypto cards or Tokens. At Extranets World I am trying to solve such integration issues and helping my customers to make a one time login to all their online businesses. The world of extranets & intranets need a single door and key to get authentication to the authorized areas of an organization. Google is best example of such type of extranets although they are still working on eliminating the hassles of signing up again and again on their various websites. The best example that let me felt comfortable was singing in to articlesbase using my facebook login details … no need to fill in details again. Now that is what we are focusing on. Netsuite is also the best example of integrated business solution, that is ready to use with little front end customizations for ERP, CRM and E-Commerce Portal. I would love to hear about other best SSO integrated solutions from you which are user friendly and administrator & developer friendly. If you are interested in talking to me on web-integrated SSO (Single Sign On) solutions, then please join me on Extranetworld.com or on my green blog Greentechdelhi.com. I am mostly online on skype and you will find my skype information on both my websites. You can also visit my youtube channel named “Onlinemorning” with more than 50 technical & creative videos and then talk to me what you feel about us.
