<p>Dear Colleagues, <br>
</p>
<p> We are operating some Shibboleth-SP in a
clustered/cloud/containerized environment. Handling session was
always a problem during the upgrade of Shibboleth-SP (see
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://shibboleth.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SP3/pages/2065334324/Clustering">https://shibboleth.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SP3/pages/2065334324/Clustering</a>)</p>
<p>Therefore we decided to extend Shibboleth-SP with a new storage
backend which has better support in cloud native environment.
Andras Bodor joined to KIFÜ for a summer internship program and
tasked to work on development of Shibboleth-SP redis
storageservice module (<a

in C++. We tested the new backend in a lab environment and we
will deploy it in our production cloud environment in the next
week. <br>
</p>
<p> What would be the next step to be reviewed and incorporated
into the mainline Shibboleth-SP? Andras is willing to share his
work in a patch or pull request. <br>
</p>
<p> Best Regards, <br>
