The OpenConext ServiceRegistry (SR) is a web-based registry for managing federation metadata, including SAML2 SP and IdP metadata, ARP and ACL information. It is currently also used to register the OAuth metadata of entities that work with the OpenConext platform. The product is based on JANUS, originally developed by WAYF, the Danish Federation Operator and now maintained by SURFnet. Only a few minor configuration extensions were applied to implement JANUS into the ServiceRegistry module of OpenConext. For more information on JANUS, please visit http://code.google.com/p/janus-ssp/.

The content on these pages will focus on the OpenConext specific use of JANUS in its role as ServiceRegistry. "[Working with the ServiceRegistry](Working with the ServiceRegistry)" contains the overview of the necessary information for understanding the ServiceRegistry, while the other pages in this space cover specific areas in more detail.

Please review the OpenConext-serviceregistry/README.md file available on GitHub for license information, installation requirements, and the most up-to-date configuration instructions.
