What is all the fuss about Docker and containers, anyhow? What are the advantages of using containerized versions of 
Shibboleth and Grouper provided by the InCommon Trusted Access Platform 
(https://www2.internet2.edu/l/66332/2019-09-20/bwbqvz)? Why might you want to “Dockerize” other in-house applications 
and services? How can you get started?



Join us for the October 9, 2019, IAM Online (https://www2.internet2.edu/l/66332/2019-09-20/bwbqvx) and learn about how 
University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC) streamlined operations and reduced downtime by moving the Shibboleth 
Identity Provider from standalone VMs to Docker containers. We’ll discuss what motivated this, how UMBC introduced 
Docker to its existing environment, how they ultimately transitioned to a container-only deployment, and what’s ahead.



Hear about UMBC's initial roll-out of Grouper using the InCommon Trusted Access Platform 
(https://www2.internet2.edu/l/66332/2019-09-20/bwbqvz) and plans to migrate the campus ERP software (PeopleSoft) to 
containers.



Also learn about InCommon's development and deployment of the containerized versions of  Shibboleth, Grouper, COmanage, 
and midPoint.
