HTTP Basic, Digest and Amazon S3 REST authentication

Secure your backend services using Basic Authentication or Digest Authentication over HTTP or HTTPS with a Proxy service deployed on the UltraESB. The credentials are verified using any Spring Security based authentication providers - including in-memory, Database, LDAP etc. The article presents the ready-to-run Sample #110 of the UltraESB that demonstrates many scenarios to secure, and to invoke secured services! The highlight of the article is a proxy service that could be used to authenticate into Amazon S3 using its REST API. A follow up article will soon demonstrate how a fixed-length COBOL file is polled from a directory or sftp, ftp/s, converted into XML and uploaded into a S3 location.. keep tuned!
