             Summary: Addition of caching for backing store access used by realms.
                 Key: WFLY-1523
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-1523
             Project: WildFly
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Domain Management, Security
            Reporter: Darran Lofthouse
            Assignee: Darran Lofthouse
             Fix For: 8.0.0.Alpha3


For JAAS this is achieved by caching keyed on the combination of the username and the password, once we switch to the CallbackHandler approach this is no longer applicable as there is often not a single username/credential combination - instead a protocol specific exchange is used to establish the identity of the remote user.

Any cache would also potentially require: -
 - Predicable eviction.
 - Management Operations e.g. clear entire cache, remove single entries etc...
 - Separation of caches for authenticiation data and additional data loaded for authorization purposes.
