Embodiment Construction

[0020]Some embodiments of the present invention may be useful in reverse proxy and Single Sign On (SSO) environments.

[0021]FIG. 1 shows an exemplary reverse proxy, single-sign-on environment. A user browser 102 can access functionality through the reverse proxy 104. In the example of FIG. 1, a request for “http: / / reverseproxy.companyname.com / mail” is sent to the reverse proxy 104 and mapped to a resource 106 at “http: / / mail.companyname.com”. In one embodiment, the reverse proxy 104 can be set up to access the web application instances 106 and 108.

[0022]For purposes of this application a reverse proxy can be any system that can do such a reverse mapping. In one embodiment, a reverse proxy is a server that proxies content from a remote web application to an end-user and may or may not modify that content.

[0023]No additional or supplemental functionality, such as SSO, should be imputed to the meaning of the term “Reverse Proxy” or “Proxy”.

[0024]Supplemental functionalities can include ...

Abstract

Application role mappings can be maintained at a reverse proxy server. When a request for a web application is received at the reverse proxy servers, the proper user role for the web application can be determined at the reverse proxy server. The proper user role can be sent as part of a HTTP header to the web application. The web application can use the user role without doing an independent mapping of the user to a role.
