Janssen is a self-funded project chartered directly under the Linux Foundation to foster the development of enterprise digital identity and access management infrastructure. As the lead Contributors, the Gluu team drives the priorities on a day-to-day basis, governed and guided by the Janssen community Technical Steering Commitee.

There are several Janssen Components in different stages of development, from demos to stable releases. Janssen Project software has batteries included. You will find binaries, cloud native deployment assets, documentation and more-- enabling you to build a product or mission critical cybersecurity service with Janssen software.

Janssen History

In 2020, Gluu decided to give contributors a role in the governance and collaborated with the Linux Foundation to charter the Janssen Project. The initial software contribution for the Janssen Project was a fork of the Gluu Server version 4. Subsequently, the Janssen Project developers added a new configuration control plane, tools, demos, documentation, packaging and deployment assets.

Why the name Janssen?

Pigeons (or doves...) are universally regarded as a symbol of peace--which we need more of today. But pigeons are also really fast, capable of flying 1000 kilometers in a single day, powered by a handful of seeds. The Janssen brothers of Arendonk in Belgium bred the world's fastest family of racing pigeons. Janssen racing pigeons revolutionized the sport. The Janssen Project seeks to revolutionize how open-source digital identity scales in the clouds.
