Iot Cloudlabs commented on MILAGRO-15: -------------------------------------- Great! Very excited about this decision > MILAGRO ecosystem architecture > ------------------------------- > > Key: MILAGRO-15 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MILAGRO-15 > Project: Milagro > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Tom Matecki > > Proposed Milagro Ecosystem Participants: > Milagro's proposed ecosystem participants can be divided into two camps: > Those that consume and derive > value from Milagro Tokens to perform a specic action, and those that issue > or assist in the issuance of > Milagro Tokens. > For those who issue Milagro Tokens, being that they are identity based > cryptographic keys, ascertaining > identity is a critical function within the ecosystem, which further divides > the responsibility into those who > validate the unique identity of an entity petitioning to receive a Milagro > Token, and the entity that actually > issues a Milagro Token. > • People, Apps or Things (PATs) - entities that obtain Milagro Tokens to > perform various cryptographic actions within a Milagro partition. > • Identity Providers (IdPs) - an IdP is a term commonly used when describing > digital identity systems. IdP stands for Identity Provider, a party that > oers user authentication as a service when used within the OpenID Connect > ecosystem, for example. Within Milagro, an IdP authenticates and veries as > true the identity of the PAT that is petitioning a Distributed Trust > Authority (D-TA), the entity issuing a Milagro Token. The D-TA creates its > own relationship with an IdP on its own, and can rely on many IdPs to perform > unique roles. The OpenIDConnect protocol will serve as the basis for > federation of the IdPs capabilities to the Distributed Trust Authorities, who > act as 'Relying Parties' or RPs. > • Distributed Trust Authorities (D-TAs) - Distributed Trust Authorities are > services run by the stakeholders in a Milagro partition which issue Milagro > Tokens to People, Apps or Things who petition to obtain them. Distributed > Trust Authorities may run their own IdPs, or outsource entirely this function. > • Trusted Bitcoin (TB) Proxies - The TB proxy is congured and administered > by the application developer or device manufacturer employed in the service > of the Milagro partition stakeholders. It is responsible for registering new > devices onto the Blockchain that are not able to download a full bitcoin > client, but also informing the new device or app which D-TA's and by > extension IdP's it will be interacting with. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
