Authentication & IdP Connectors

HPE Machine Learning Data Management has an embedded Open ID Connect based on Dex, allowing for vendor-neutral authentication using your existing credentials from various back-ends. You can enable users to authenticate to a HPE Machine Learning Data Management cluster using their favorite Identity Providers by following the articles in this section.

When you enable authentication, you gain access to HPE Machine Learning Data Management’s authorization features. You can use HPE Machine Learning Data Management’s Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) model to configure authorization for your users and assign roles that grant certain permissions for interacting with HPE Machine Learning Data Management’s resources.
