Oracle EBS Shibboleth SSO Implementation for 11i, R12, and 12.2

Oracle EBS – Shibboleth SAML IDP SSO Integration

Shibboleth SAML IDP SSO is integrated with Oracle EBS through SSOGEN SAML Gateway. As Oracle EBS does not support SAML IDP SSO Such as Shibboleth, SSOgen would be necessary to bridge the gap between SAML and Oracle EBS. SSOGEN would be registered as a Service Provider with Shibboleth IDP and Oracle EBS would be configured to delegate authentication to SSOgen. When a user logs in to EBS, user is redirected to SSOgen, which in turn sends the user to Shibboleth SSO. After a successful authentication by Shibboleth IDP, user is sent back to Oracle EBS Home Page via SSOgen gateway.

Oracle Access Manager – OAM and OID is the default solution for Oracle EBS (Oracle Applications), and other Oracle Products such as Oracle Portal, WebCenter, Discover, and Oracle BI – OBIEE. However, if your organization chose Shibboleth as the strategic enterprise SSO solution, then you would want to enable Shibboleth for Oracle products as well. SSOgen offers a simplified and flexible solution for this integration.

The end user experience would be similar to that of another Shibboleth SSO protected Application. SSOgen is completely transparent during the login process in this case.
