The problem is that a malicious user who knows others usernames for an account could lock users out. We should look into adding an account policy option to instead display a captcha after a number of bad login attempts.

Title: Message Title There's 1 new comment on this page [DISCUSS] Apache Syncope 3.0 Architecture Francesco Chicchiricco I have spent some time experimenting with Microprofile (as I have already quite some experience with Spring Boot), and built an Hello World application with Apache TomEE, Thorntail (former Wildfly Swarm) and Payara Micro. After doing some code and reading few blog posts, my opinion is that we should better go with Spring Boot, for the following reasons: migration of existing code will be easier (Spring → Spring, rather than Spring → CDI) Spring Boot can generate fat JARs (for standalone deployment) and plain WARs (for traditional deployment), I haven't found any way to do the same with Microprofile; this is important because we need to preserve the possibility to deploy Apache Syncope 3.0 either as a Java EE application and a microservice while at the moment we keep using Apache CXF and Apache OpenJPA even when deploying to Wildfly or Payara Micro, doing the same is not possible with their Microprofile counterparts, as the code will abstract from the concrete implementations Maxim Thomas In Spring Boot standalone app, it is possible to use Undertow instead of Tomcat, seems it shows better performance.

For Keymaster, Apache Zookeper could be managed via Spring Cloud Zookeeper. Reply • Like View comment Stop watching space • Manage notifications This message was sent by Atlassian Confluence 6.9.0
