Onepoint
Contents
Introduction
Onepoint enables Systems Integration for the IT environment. Through its disciplines concepts, it allows the integration of IT assets, modules, systems and units into a single and widelly connected among all parts, creating the possibility to creating actions, tasks and flows involving all those parts.
Architecture
Onepoint components:
Backends
Backends are a Onepoint-specific concept. They are components of the computational environment designed to carry out a task or a group of related tasks for a Discipline. They allow requests and operations on the target systems through Onepoint REST calls. They also allow the integration of asynchronous tasks directly on the target systems, through Onepoint Scripts calls.
Primary Backends
Primary Backends are backends that can be instanced, parameterized and extended to integrate environment's own components, such as vaults, user directories, ticketing systems, authentication systems and authorizations systems.
Authentication Backends
Responsible for user identity authentication. After a positive response from 'login' operation, Onepoint generates a session for operating the system. It's an extensible backend. In other words, it's possible to integrate other authenticators into onepoint, including supporting Multi-Factor Authentication and Single Sign-On tools.
Authorization Backends
Directory Backends
Ticketing Backends
Vault Backends
Access Session Backend
Secondary Backends
Secondary Backends are internal and/or fixed backends, that can't be instanced, parameterized or extended.
