AWS Cognito is one of the many Identity Providers that clients of Cleeng have set up and use in combination with Cleeng's Core solution in order to have their viewers and subscribers authenticate to their OTT apps. AWS Cognito provides an end-to-end identity solution, ready for peak volumes, secure, and comes with social and Enterprise identity federation.
Cleeng and AWS Cognito
When AWS Cognito is integrated with Core, the following features will be handled by AWS Cognito instead of Core:
- User Registration
- Login, Social Login
- Password Reset
- Authentication
- Profile and Consent Management
Integration
Cleeng can integrate with many different authentication platforms. In the case of AWS Cognito, their default instructions and guidelines can be followed. Once the user is authenticated on AWS Cognito, the authenticated user can be automatically connected and authorized for Core.
The best way to integrate is through the MediaStore SDK and APIs that authenticate through the JWT mechanism using the SSO Login endpoint.
