Hello Anderson,
Yes, there are a small (in our case) delay when the JVM start on first call, and a 30-40Mb of memory consumption in each process.
This is not a problem for us at this time, and the benefits of extensibility outweigh the drawbacks, we currently use several Java libraries to facilitate tasks such as creating office documents or sending / receiving / parsing emals.
Anyway, we have plans to move the LDAP authentication to an independent web service if we see that the use of resources is excessively increased.
Regards,
Jero
Jeroni, I was talking to my colleagues and remembered why we removed the Java call.
The problem we were facing is that sometimes, but not every time, the login screen was presenting a delay. Something like two or three seconds. We figured out that it was being caused by a java call used to decode an AES256 token that the user send during the login process.
Then our consultant, Florencia, told us about a new "Security" class that was implemented in Genero and could natively decode that token. And in the occasion she advised us to always look forward to native solutions, especially on the login process, that is executed a lot of times!
So that's way. But again, that was on a GDC application, I guess that in web applications, like it's your case, this is different. Because at web, Genero use a single application for multiple users. So I think you will not have problems with it.
Hello
What client are you using ? GDC or GBC ? If GDC, what kind of connection are you using ? SSH or HTTP ?
If you are using GDC / SSH, you should be able to use the AD thanks to the kerberos setting in your GDC shortcuts.
If you are using GDC / HTTP or GBC, our SSO integration in GAS allows you to interact with IDP such as ADFS.
Please contact your support center if you need more details.
Olivier.
Genero Project Manager.
Olivier, thanks for your reply!
We are using GDC/SSH and our goal is to retrieve the domain and user credentials that the user used to login at Windows, and validate it to perform a auto-login at Genero.
Our consultant, Florencia, already emailed me and we are working on this.
Thanks again for your attention, after we had this working I will post here the solution, to be registered.
