WSO2 Identity Server 5.5.0 Released!

The WSO2 Identity Server team is pleased to announce the release of WSO2
Identity Server version 5.5.0.

WSO2 Identity Server is an open source identity and access management
server. It supports a wide array of authentication protocols such as SAML
2.0 Web SSO, OAuth 2.0/1.0a, OpenID Connect, and WS-Federation Passive. It
supports role based authorization and fine grained authorization with XACML
2.0/3.0 while inbound/outbound provisioning is supported through SCIM and
SPML.

WSO2 Identity Server is developed on top of the revolutionary WSO2 Carbon
platform, an OSGi based framework that provides seamless modularity to your
SOA solution via componentization.


All the major features have been developed as pluggable Carbon components.
