Technical Comparison: OpenID and SAML
Topic: Technology 6:31 am EST, Jan 10, 2008

This document presents a technical comparison of the OpenID Authentication protocol and the Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) Web Browser SSO Profile and the SAML framework itself. Topics addressed include design centers, terminology, specification set contents and scope, user identifier treatment, web single sign-on profiles, trust, security, identity provider discovery mechanisms, key agreement approaches, as well as message formats and protocol bindings. An executive summary targeting various audiences, and presented from the perspectives of end-users, implementors, and deployers, is provided. We do not attempt to assign relative value between OpenID and SAML, e.g. which is "better"; rather, it attempts to present an objective technical comparison.
