Hello,
Our requirement is to use SP as CMS and at the same time to display content from third party database. Third party content may occupy either full page or partial page (Ex: displaying weather, stock price etc., as part of SP page).
We want to use ADFS for authentication, so that we can provide SSO between SP and ASP.Net MVC application.
1. I am assuming that, new app model is the best option to implement widgets (weather, stock prices etc.,). If so, do we need wildcard SSL to support all app URLs? Is it possible to use single URL/SSL and combine all widgets into one app?
For ex: Weather will have one page/url in the app, Stock price will have different page/url in the same app. We are trying to avoid wildcard SSL & multiple IP4s.
2. If we want to display full page content from third party database (nothing related to SP), is it good to build it as ASP.Net web app, host on different web server and use SSO? OR is it good to use separate SP app for this?
3. I heard that SP apps do not work on web applications that use SAML. How this is going to effect us?
Thank you for your time!
