Abstract
Disclosed are various approaches for relaying and caching authentication credentials. A single sign-on (SSO) token is received, the SSO token representing a user account authenticated with an identity manager. An authentication request is then sent to a service that is federated with the identity manager in response to receipt of the SSO token, the authentication request including the SSO token. An access token is received in response to the authentication request, the access token providing access to the service for the user account authenticated with the identity manager for a predefined period of time. The access token and a link between the access token and the SSO token are then cached.
