This release adds a lot of value to the Carbon platform in terms of new features, usability improvements, performance improvements, architectural improvements and bug fixes. If the amount of new features being added is taken into consideration, it beats previous releases with a large margin.
Another focus of 3.2.0 release was to improve the build system. Being a 100% open source platform, giving users and developers the ability of easily building the entire platform is important. Thanks to all the hard work put into this area, the source code in 3.2.0 release is much more organized and it can be easily built.
WSO2 Identity Server v3.2.0 was also released along with the Carbon 3.2.0 release. Following is a list of new features available in this release of Identity Server.
- XACML UI Editor for the Policy Administration Point
- Enhanced Policy Administration Point features with policy versioning and notifications
- Support for multiple XACML Policy Information Points
- Improved XACML policy test UI
- ApacheDS based key distribution center
- Custom security policy support for STS
- Support for SAML 1.1/2.0 Bearer Subject Confirmation
One of the main features that we have mainly focused is the all new XACML editor. It has been completely redesigned and re-implemented to provide a better user experience. Even a user who does not have any knowledge on XACML, can start defining policies with the new editor.
