{{#eclipseproject:technology.higgins|eclipse_custom_style.css}}
- Change left-hand navigation menu
- Explode "Solutions" into the three "solutions areas": Higgins Selector, Identity Services, Attribute Services
- Replace the single "Solutions" word in the left-hand-nav with the three solutions areas words (Higgins Selector,...etc.)
- Explode "Solutions" into the three "solutions areas": Higgins Selector, Identity Services, Attribute Services
- Eliminate Solutions 1.0 and Solutions 1.1 pages moving their current (duplicative/conflicting) content into the appropriate sections of these pages (thereby eliminating overlap/conflict with these pages):
- NOTE: the above 3 pages should all be wiki pages so that they are kept better up to date. The php pages are usually out of date at any given moment.
- Tuck the XDI4J solution underneath the "Attribute Services" solution-area instead of treating it as an orphaned fourth solution area
- Benefits:
- Consistency: left hand nav would now be CONSISTENT with the home page (three + misc) vertical "doors"
- Eliminate duplication/conflict mentioned above
- Flatter structure: we've now organized our solutions into these four buckets, clicking on each brings you straight there
- More digestible: the reason we created the "four doors" approach was to chuck Higgins up. Solutions mashes all these disparate solutions back together again.
Reorganizing Solutions
Proposal:
TODAY --> PROPOSED ===== ======== Clients Higgins Selector ------- ---------------- AIR Client & Server AIR Selector (including ICS) Web Selector (including ICS) ICM[missing!] merged into the above RCP no change GTK/Cocoa no change FF-embedded no change Identity Services Identity Services ----------------- ----------------- WS-Trust IdP no change SAML IdP no change RP no change Web Selector moved up above XDI4J moved down below Identity Att. Svcs Attribute Services ------------------ ------------------ IDS - multiprotocol web service XDI4J - now moved here IdAS - today's Java framework Where IDS is short for "Identity Attribute Service," a multiprotocol attribute data service (web service) based on IdAS framework.
- Tuck the Context Data Model as a solution under the "IdAS" solution area
- Eliminate the overarching Higgins Data Model it has been a placeholder for years. The only substance is in the CDM which is ONLY used by IdAS solutions
