Siebel CRM Web Services Reference > Siebel CRM Web Services Overview > About Siebel Web Service Authentication and PerformanceIn implementations where scalability is critical, a lightweight context management facility for authentication is available and its use is recommended. With this facility, authentication is managed using a combination of user credentials and a sessionID token:
The facility is a distinct alternative to the basic authentication standard described by WS-Security. Using the UserName token as provided in WS-Security, while fully supported as part of Siebel's WS-I Basic Profile compliance, will not yield the same benefit as using the higher-performance session optimization facility provided by the Siebel implementation. For detailed information on authentication and security see Integration Platform Technologies: Siebel Enterprise Application Integration. |
