Banner 9 SAML

FWIW,  we have come to the same conclusions(stick with CAS) with all of the Banner components EXCEPT for the newer Banner XE modules that began delivering in 2012.  Those modules are built on the Grails platform where there are already spring security plugins developed for SAML2 implementation.  Ellucian granted us permission to fully explore those plugins while they develop their own, without violating our support contract, and we have successfully implemented SAML2 for BannerXE.  Again, we never got there with the legacy Banner versions/modules.

Hi All,

I've also run in to issues with SAML 2.0 integration for some of the Ellucian Banner 9 components, even when using their Ellucian Ethos Identity solution as the IdP.
Until the SAML 2.0 support is more mature, I'm suggesting the continued use of CAS, whenever possible.

Thanks,

Plenty of browsers will break with any use of iframes and you should assume any such use is impossible with this software. That is going to be increasingly true and is already mostly true. That applies to CAS or SAML.
