A '''Deployment Configuration''' is a specific combination of Higgins [[Components]] that, when assembled and deployed, results in either an infrastructure-level service, or and end-user application.

== Higgins Selector ==
+
A "selector" is an end-user application that allows a user to accept [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I-card i-cards] from card issuing sites (known as "Identity Providers" or IdPs), create self-issued i-cards, manage the user's set of cards (a bit like a wallet), and to use these cards to authenticate to relying sites, or to local applications. These i-cards are visualized as card icons in a user interface that allows the user to review, manage and in some cases edit some of the information associated with the card.
+
 
+
The long term plan is that the selector will support all of the major identity protocols and run on all popular platforms. In the past year we have worked mostly on interoperability with Microsoft CardSpace-compatible card issuing and relying sites, systems and services as well as with OpenID OPs and relying sites.
+
 
+
Here are the three selector deployment configurations that we support:
+
* [[Web-based Selector]] - for Firefox or IE on Windows, Linux, and OSX (local browser extention and a hosted agent service)
+
* [[Client-based Selector]] - for Firefox (or other applications) on Linux, FreeBSD and OSX (runs entirely on local machine)
+
* [[Eclipse-based Selector]] - for Eclipse RCP Applications (runs entirely on local machine)
+
 
+
==Services==
+
* [[STS/IdP Deployment]] - STS/IdP service
+
* [[IdAS Deployment]] - Identity Attribute Service
+
* [[RP Site Deployment]] - Relying Party site
+
 
+
==Nightly Builds==
+
* [[Automated Builds]] - not a deployment configuration in the usual sense; the Higgins project automatically builds some (and soon all) of the [[Components]] every night.
+
 
+
==Higgins-based Services and Apps==
+
This section lists known services and apps developed external to the Higgins project, but based on Higgins [[Components]].
+
* [[Bandit STS/IdP Deployment]] - Higgins-based STS/IdP service
+
* [http://eclipse.org/alf Eclipse ALF Project]
