Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed for providing a multi-component application, including a first and second component, and a first and second server. The first component may be implemented at the first server, while a second component may be implemented at a client device. An end user of a client device may request access to metadata stored on the second server that is utilized by the second component to implement the multi-component application. The end user may authenticate with the first component. The first component may then communicate with the second server to authenticate the end user to the second server, thereby granting the end user access to the second server without having to reauthenticate to the second server.
