Where do user profiles live?
- Where does a user access ACCESS? (i.e., they login to the XSEDE website now)
User Profiles Management
- Collecting and maintaining user profile information and updates
Connecting authn/authz via ORCID ID, InCommon ID, with XSEDE ID.
- Need to be able to get XSEDE ID back from this initial handshake
What is a “User Profile”
- Operational central identity (Track 3)
- Data collected as a result of the user taking action (Track 1, Track 4, RPs)
- User Profile = Data provided by the user about themselves (Track 2)
Need to clarify what data we have for the users and define terms to use when talking about the data. There was some discussion about what the terms should be, but the types of data associated with users were agreed on (and there may be more).
