About this Presentation

Over 100,000 organizations have seen Apache Shiro's simplicity and power as as security framework for authentication and authorization. But did you know that Shiro's Enterprise Session Management enables easy session clustering for any application? If you need to support concurrent user sessions in the thousands or millions, you won't want to miss this!

Apache Shiro is an easy-to-use open-source security framework with four cornerstones: authentication, authorization, session management and cryptography.

In this session Les Hazlewood, the Apache Shiro PMC Chair, will cover:
● Shiro’s enterprise session management capabilities
● How it can be used across any application (not just web or JEE applications)
● How it can be used to support simple Single Sign-On
● How to enable a distributed session cluster to support hundreds of thousands or even millions of concurrent sessions.

As a working example, Les will show how to set up a cloud hosted session cluster in under 10 minutes using a distributed NoSQL data store. If you need to scale user session load, you won’t want to miss this!
