Dear all,
Sorry that I have to re-post the similar topic on the AS 5.3.0 for JSON
support as I didn't get an answer on my queries.
My requirement is make our SaaS Web application to do the data transmission
in JSON format instead of SOAP, is it feasible and any potential risk?
Thanks, Wenxing

BTW: I found this post:
http://wso2.com/library/knowledge-base/add-json-support-wso2-wsas/. Is it still
valid to AS 5.3.0? workable for my requirement?
Thanks, Wenxing

Sorry, I didn’t quite get it. Does it mean that we have to use a formatter to
do the conversion from JSON to XML, and then from XML to JSON back to browser
client?

The CarbonTomcatRealm is good to do the Authentication, sorry to miss that the
Applications need to create their own Users, Roles and etc. Therefore we do
need a Service endpoint for User Management or we need to provide a common
library.
Furthermore, the Client Web applications provides the JSON messages in
HTTP/HTTPs to AS, How to workaround this requirement?
I've used the AuthenticationAdmin with XML. See the following curl request. I
figured out the message format by looking at the 'login' operation of the WSDL
[3].
curl -vk https://localhost:9443/services/AuthenticationAdmin/login -d
"<ns:loginRequest
xmlns:ns='http://authentication.services.core.carbon.wso2.org'><username>admin</username><password>admin</password><remoteAddress></remoteAddress></ns:loginRequest>"
--header 'Content-Type: application/xml'
User management can be done with UserAdmin service which is mentioned in the
same link I sent before.

Hi wenxzhen,
User management is one of the strong suites of the WSO2 platform. For web
applications, a Tomcat realm called CarbonTomcatRealm [1] is provided that can
authenticate web applications. This transparently works with web.xml
security-constraints for "container managed security" of Tomcat.
But if you do require a more flexible way to handle authentication and
authorization, then you can use the AuthenticationAdmin endpoint. This is not a
REST API though, it is based on SOAP. Checkout the doc [2] for more info on
this. If you are interested in this route, we can discuss how to workaround the
SOAP requirements though!

Yes, in some extent, we need to use the SSO but we need more:
1. We have App1 for CustomerA
2. We have another App2 for CustomerB
3. Both App1 and App2 are Web applications running on WSO2 AS, and both
Apps needs to do the authorization and authentication
4. What would be the best practice to re-use the codes? I am thinking
to wrap the User Management into a REST/JSON API, so that both App1 and App2
can access and JSON would be much more light weight
Please kindly advice
Thanks, Wenxing

Hi Wenxing,
Can you use the SingleSignOn for your requirment[1]?

Thanks to Rasika. We are using AS530. From the description of docs[2], it seems
the Services in Jar file are being executed on the AXIS2 engine, therefore it
should be in SOAP message.
As we may have different/multiple SaaS applications, every application needs to
do the authorization and authentication against the user management tables.
Does the Carbon or AS by default provides a REST API to do the work? Or can we
provide a REST/JSON API for the user management to simplify the work or reuse
the codes? Any potential issue we may meet on the way to go?
Thanks again,
Best, Wenxing

Hi Wenxing,
Please refer docs [1] and [2] for Services/Applications deployment. WSO2
Applications Server deploys the web applications on an internal embedded Tomcat
server. Hence, apps are served through tomcats threads pool.
You can find more higher level architecture of WSO2 AS on doc link[3].
Let us know which version you are using If you need further details.
Thanks,
Rasika

Dear all,
During the running of the WSO2 AS, how will the Services/Applications be run or
scheduled on the Application Server? Are they running on different processes or
threads?
Please shed some light and share more details on the architecture. Appreciated
for your kindly help.
Best, Wenxing

You can simply write a standard JAX-RS application that supports
application/json and deploy this in WSO2 AS which can be exposed to external
users to call. Here[1] is an example.
