Overview¶

EasySDI Proxy is an EasySDI module able to relay and securize various OGC services and enables access control and content filtering. It stores in a configuration file informations about the service name, type (WMS, WFS, CSW...), the target service to interface. Each configuration has a config Id which is unique and will be part of the final service URL, like this:
http://myAppServer.com:port/WebappName/servletname/config_Id
For each config Id, EasySDI PROXY affects on or more policies. The policy contains user access definition and filters for all layers of the remote service, so that we can choose who can access which layer of this service. A policy refers only to one specific service, because of the layer access definition; each service has different layers.
For each policy you may affect several users or roles. The user source can be file or db based, LDAP, just a source your application container supports.
