Janssen Project - Open Source Digital Identity Infrastructure Software

Welcome to the Janssen Project

The Linux Foundation
DPGA

Janssen is a self-funded project chartered directly under the Linux Foundation
to foster the development of enterprise digital identity and access management
infrastructure. As the lead Contributors, the Gluu team drives the
priorities on a day-to-day basis, governed and guided by the Janssen community
Technical Steering Commitee.

There are several Janssen Components in different stages of development, from demos
to stable releases. Janssen Project software has batteries included. You
will find binaries, cloud native deployment assets, documentation and more–
enabling you to build a product or mission critical cybersecurity service with
Janssen software.

If your enteprise needs Janssen for a production deployment, Gluu offers a
commercial distribution of Janssen Project Components called
Gluu Flex and hosting.

Janssen History

In 2020, Gluu decided to give contributors a role in the
governance and collaborated with the Linux Foundation to charter the Janssen
Project. The initial software contribution for the Janssen Project was a fork of
the Gluu Server version 4. Subsequently, the Janssen Project developers added a new
configuration control plane, tools, demos, documentation, packaging and
deployment assets.

Why the name Janssen?

Pigeons (or doves…) are universally regarded as a symbol of peace–which
we need more of today. But pigeons are also really fast,
capable of flying 1000 kilometers in a single day, powered by
a handful of seeds. The Janssen brothers of Arendonk in Belgium bred the
world’s fastest family of racing pigeons. Janssen racing pigeons revolutionized
the sport. The Janssen Project seeks to revolutionize how open-source
digital identity scales in the clouds.
