SAML is a set of specifications that ENCOMPASSES the XML-format for security tokens containing assertions to pass information about a user and protocols and profiles to implement authentication and authorization scenarios. This article has a focus on software and services in the category of identity management infrastructure, which enable building Web-SSO solutions using the SAML protocol in an interoperable fashion. Software and services that are only SAML-enabled do not go here, but in the separate article SAML-enabled products and services, e.g. an online-accounting system that allows users to sign in via SAML.

Libraries and toolkits to develop SAML actors and SAML-enabled services
Libraries and toolkits are used by developers to integrate applications and services into SAML federations or to build their own SAML-actors like IdPs.
This section lists public services such as identity and attribute providers, metadata and test services, but *not* SAML-enabled web-applications and cloud services.
