A Discovery Service provides a web interface that allows a user to select which Identity Provider they will use when accessing a Service Provider. The Embedded Discovery Service is a discovery service that is co-installed with a Shibboleth Service Provider. This allows the discovery service to carry the same UI and branding as the Service Provider.
