Sun Identity Management: Identity Standards - OASIS

OASIS, the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards, is a nonprofit, international consortium that creates interoperable industry specifications based on public standards such as XML and SGML, as well as others that are related to structured information processing.

Sun is actively involved with several OASIS technical committees and is currently chairing the Provisioning Services Technical Committee focused on developing an industry standard known as Service Provisioning Markup Language (SPML).

The finished specification for SPML will provide a basic framework within which cooperating provisioning systems and services can exchange requests across firewalls and organizations in a secure and standards way. Platforms and approaches that conform to this specification will be better able to protect customers from vendor "lock-in" and open the doors to the vital aspects of automated provisioning for Web services.
