Hi Abimaran, AFAIK, OAuth mediator or OAuth Handler is used in similar purposes(authenticate clients to secured services). One difference could be the request intercepting points are different in a mediator and a handler. Oauth mediator can be used authenticate to proxy service and normal Oauth API handler only used authenticate requests comes to API which cannot use to authenticate proxy services.
