An identity and access management system including: a processor; and memory including instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to: receive an API token request for an authorization token to authorize an application function associated with a target API of an application; determine identity information from the API token request; retrieve attributes associated with the identity information; identify the target API and an API function profile associated with the target API for the application function; filter the attributes associated with the identity information based on the API function profile; generate the authorization token according to the filtered attributes; and transmit the authorization token in response to the API token request.

Intent-based identity access management systems and methods

Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing intent-based orchestration using network parsimony trees. In various embodiments, in response to receiving a request for network services that comprises desired characteristics and performance parameters for the requested network services without information regarding specific hardware, hardware type, location, or network, a computing system might generate a request-based parsimony tree based on the desired characteristics and performance parameters. The computing system might access, from a datastore, a plurality of network-based parsimony trees that are each generated based on measured network metrics, might compare the request-based parsimony tree with each of one or more network-based parsimony trees to determine a fitness score for each network-based parsimony tree, and might identify a best-fit network-based parsimony tree based on the fitness scores. The computing system might identify and might allocate network resources based on the identified best-fit network-based parsimony tree, for providing the requested network services.
