v3.9.0

What’s new

This release adds support for OpenIDConnect and offers initial, limited support for QoS.

  • OpenIDConnect
    • FTS can be configured to authorise users on the basis of OAuth2 tokens issued by an Authorisation Server such as IAM. The token can be used to subsequently drive file transfers.
  • QoS
    • FTS can now be given a target QoS as part of a transfer submission. With the present release, this will result in a query, via CDMI, of the QoS capabilities of the destination. This lays the foundation for the full support of managed QoS transitions in a subsequent XDC release.

List of RfCs

  • XSD-64 - Low level QoS client
  • XSD-65 - QoS job submission
  • XSD-67 - Basic OIC/OAuth support
  • XSD-68 - Support for refresh tokens
