Abstract
Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, network traffic management apparatuses, and network traffic management systems performing load balancing in a federated identity environment. An enhanced identity service provider server receives a redirected user authentication from a client device. Upon successfully authenticating the user of the client device a token is generated. Further another service provider server is selected based on a comparison of one or more network parameters and the client device is redirected with the token to the another selected service provider server. Based on a validation of the token the client device accesses applications protected by the selected another service provider server.
