A comment on OAuth for the Open Web. Parent comment

Gluu isn't based on OpenAM. Gluu is based on a whole bunch of other products (like Shibboleth) but not OpenAM. OpenAM originated from Sun's OpenSSO when Oracle bought Sun and FrogeRock was created. Incidentally this is the same time Gluu was created.

OpenAM is also no longer opensource. The source was closed by Forgerock in the beginning of 2018.

One of the forks that sprung from this source closing is wren:security ( https://wrensecurity.org ). Disclosure: I work on that project ;-)

Good to know. Gluu was built upon and dependent on ForgeRock products last I was working with it. I guess they're having a pretty bad time if ForgeRock pulled the sources.

The Gluu Server bundles a fork of OpenDJ 3.0 for persistence, the last open source build. It also supports OpenLDAP, and will soon support Couchbase.
