Identity and Access Management (IAM)
Although several XSEDE services will be retired on
Single Sign On Hub - alternative approaches
Primarily focused on Resource Providers and Partner Institutions. Guidance on how to log into resource provider directly.
For individual SSOHub customers, guidance will need to be provided by each XSEDE Service Provider (ACCESS Resource Provider) about how to use ssh to login directly to the SP's login hosts. All SPs have their own documentation at their websites for this. Some SPs will need to update their current documentation accordingly. [Generate a list of links to documentation for the SPs to which XSEDE customers can login from the SSOHub today]
Strategies for ACCESS RPs to authenticate customer ssh logins with ACCESS IDs are being developed. The main obstacle is mapping or translation of ACCESS IDs to site-local IDs.

All existing allocations (with an expiration date beyond September 1, 2022) will be “mapped” to the new allocations tiers. More information on the new tiers will be broadcast on the Advance to ACCESS page.
ACCESS Allocations will continue to accommodate the types of projects that have been previously supported through XSEDE (educational, Campus Champion, Gateway, etc.).
The research communities and Resource Providers can expect an emphasis on time savings and simplification in the allocations process and policies.
Questions, comments, or interest in joining the review panel for ACCESS allocations requests, please use this form to contact Allocations.
Ticketing System
Initial service will be a transition of the XSEDE RT system. This will help provide the seamless transition for the community. As additional requirements and innovative approaches are refined, new ticketing services will become available.
