Authentication routing system and method for cloud computing service and authentication router

An authentication routing method for a cloud computing service, comprising:

• registering, by an authentication router, a cloud computing service and saving registration information of a cloud computing service registered successfully;
• when a user terminal requests a cloud computing service, receiving, by the authentication router, an authentication request for the user terminal from the requested cloud computing service;
• routing, by the authentication router, the authentication request for the user terminal to a corresponding authentication server for authentication according to the saved registration information corresponding to the cloud computing service;
• and
• wherein the registration information comprises:
• an index number of a cloud computing service, an authentication mechanism chosen by the cloud computing service, an address of an authentication server address providing the authentication mechanism and a routing strategy of the authentication server.

An authentication router, comprising:

• a registration module, which is configured to register a cloud computing service and save registration information of a cloud computing service registered successfully;
• an authentication routing module, which is configured to receive an authentication request for a user terminal from the cloud computing service, and route the authentication request for the user terminal to a corresponding authentication server for authentication according to the saved registration information corresponding to the cloud computing service;
• and
• wherein the registration information comprises:
• an index number of a cloud computing service, an authentication mechanism chosen by the cloud computing service, an address of an authentication server address providing the authentication mechanism and a routing strategy of the authentication server.
