There are 4 authentication options in BellaDati:

1. User authenticated against BellaDati database

Standard and default option. All users are manually created in BellaDati and their data are stored only in BellaDati database. This option is used in case you don't have users stored in some other source (or you don't want to store this data somewhere else) and you don't need SSO.

2. Federated login - User authenticated against other source

Authentication is federated/delegated to other source - e.g. Active Directory, LDAP, CAS. This source is responsible for storing user data and it provides information if some user can be logged in into BellaDati. Configuration is easy and you can do it on your own (please see our documentation for user directories, AD, CAS, Google and Twitter for more details). This option is used in case you have users stored in some existing source and you don't need SSO.

3. Simple SSO - Login via REST API

Simple realization of SSO. Your system stores information about logged in user, and delegates which user should be logged in BellaDati via our REST API. Implementation based on our documentation is required in your system. This option is used in case it is needed SSO between your system and BellaDati.

4. Standard SSO

Standard and powerfull SAML/Kerberos/SPNEGO implementation of SSO. Specific and advanced configuration (based on chosen SSO implementation) is required in BellaDati. This option is used in case it is needed SSO between multiple systems and BellaDati.
