Federated identity management for data repositories

A system, comprising:

• a processor configured to:
• receive a communication for a data source at a wrapper, the wrapper including a dispatcher and a service, the dispatcher receiving the communication and being data agnostic, the communication corresponding to end user credentials for an end user;
• provide the communication from the dispatcher to the data source and to the service;
• authenticate, using the service, the end user based on the end user credentials and utilizing federated identity management;
• perform a read only binding of the service to a federated identity management data source;
• and
• prevent access to the data source if the end user is not authenticated utilizing the federated identity management;
• and
• a memory coupled to the processor and configured to provide the processor with instructions;
• wherein to authenticate, using the service, the end user based on the end user credentials and utilizing federated identity management the processor is further configured to:
• provide the end user credentials to the federated identity management data source;
• and
• search, using the read only binding, the federated identity management data source for the end user.

A computer program product, the computer program product being embodied in a non-transitory computer readable storage medium and comprising computer instructions for:

• receiving a communication for a data source at a wrapper, the wrapper including a dispatcher and a service, the dispatcher receiving the communication and being data agnostic, the communication corresponding to end user credentials for an end user;
• providing the communication from the dispatcher to the data source and to the service;
• authenticating, using the service, the end user based on the end user credentials and utilizing federated identity management;
• performing a read only binding of the service to a federated identity management data source;
• and
• preventing access to the data source if the end user is not authenticated utilizing the federated identity management;
• wherein authenticating, using the service, the end user based on the end user credentials and utilizing federated identity management further comprises:
• providing the end user credentials to the federated identity management data source;
• and
• searching, using the read only binding, the federated identity management data source for the end user.
