[CS 1] The SAML metadata standard belongs to the family of XML-based standards known as the Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) published by OASIS in 2005. A SAML metadata document describes a SAML deployment such as a SAML identity provider or a SAML service provider. Deployments share metadata to establish a baseline of trust and ...
Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML, pronounced SAM-el, / ˈ s æ m əl /) [1] is an open standard for exchanging authentication and authorization data between parties, in particular, between an identity provider and a service provider.
SAML actors are Identity Providers (IdP), Service Providers (SP), Discovery Services, ECP Clients, Metadata Services, or Broker/IdP-proxy.This table shows the capability of products according to Kantara Initiative testing.
Security Assertion Markup Language 2.0 (SAML 2.0) is a version of the SAML standard for exchanging authentication and authorization identities between security domains.SAML 2.0 is an XML-based protocol that uses security tokens containing assertions to pass information about a principal (usually an end user) between a SAML authority, named an Identity Provider, and a SAML consumer, named a ...
A given SAML identity provider is described by an <md:IDPSSODescriptor> element defined by the SAML metadata schema. [OS 3] Likewise, a SAML service provider is described by an <md:SPSSODescriptor> metadata element. In addition to an authentication assertion, a SAML identity provider may also include an attribute assertion in the response.

A SAML service provider is a system entity that receives and accepts authentication assertions in conjunction with a single sign-on (SSO) profile of the Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML). In the SAML domain model, a SAML relying party is any system entity that receives and accepts information from another system entity.
It can be handled in a hub-and-spoke exchange or by the distribution of a metadata aggregate by a federated operator. One thing that is consistent, however, is the fact that "federation" describes methods of identity portability which are achieved in an open, often standards-based manner – meaning anyone adhering to the open specification or ...
