Sun Microsystems to provide OpenSSO Support

Sun Microsystems announced on July 23, 2008 support for OpenSSO through its Sun OpenSSO Express program. What it means is that companies can buy support for the OpenSSO offering that is expected to release on a much shorter cycle basis than its commercial counterpart Federated Access Manager (now rebranded Sun OpenSSO Enterprise). That's a good news for OpenSSO contributors and customers who should be able to access new features issued from the OpenSSO community quicker than waiting for the longer full releasing cycles of Federated Access Manager.
