What’s inside

The AppSSO package installs the following resources:

  • The appsso namespace with a deployment of the AppSSO controller and services for webhooks.
  • RBAC
  • APIs

Prerequisites

Before installing Application Single Sign-On, ensure that you have Tanzu Application Platform installed on your Kubernetes cluster.

The sso.apps.tanzu.vmware.com package has these dependencies:

  • cert-manager.tanzu.vmware.com: Required at installation time and runtime. For more information see, Install cert-manager.

  • crossplane.tanzu.vmware.com: Required at installation time and runtime. For more information see, Install Crossplane.

  • service-bindings.tanzu.vmware.com: Required at runtime. For more information see, Install Service Bindings.

Important

Installation time dependencies must be present on the cluster at the time the Application Single Sign-On package is being applied.

Runtime dependencies don’t have to be present when the Application Single Sign-On package is being applied, but they are required eventually for it to function fully.
