AEM Author SSO for On-Prem Licensing

I am trying to figure out if we need additional licensing to implement SSO for our On-Prem Authoring environment.

Does anyone know anything about this? Personal experience, web page, etc.

Thanks.

I did work on on-premise some time back, we never talked about License with Adobe for SSO set up and things have changed from that time. But since you got green signal from Adobe, i think you are good to proceed.

You mean to do the set up of LDAP SSO/ SAML/ Okta with on-prem author? i don't think so.

    I would think not also, but we are going through licensing of other Adobe products and we were told that a license change was required because SSO was not included in our license type. And of course I have no idea what our license type is.

    I contacted Support and received this response:

     

    I understand, but there is no need to upgrade your license in order to use SSO on your on-prem author. I don't think we've ever required a change in license for this, at least on 6.5. I don't see such thing in the documentation either [1]. You should be able to go ahead and implement with your current license.

     

    So I am confused and trying to figure out what Adobe is doing to us.

        @tom_fought Let's just talk on the AEM side, SSO is just another layer of authentication and I don't think on on-prem there is any additional licensing on, you should just get IDP details and configure it in the server.

          Totally agree with comments here. We have install SSO earlier this year, many conversations with Adobe Support. Not once was licensing brought up.
