- JOC Cockpit implements a pluggable architecture that allows to add Identity Service products with future JS7 releases.
- For compatibility reasons early releases of JS7 include the Shiro Identity Service, see

Settings are available at a global level and per Identity Service.
Global Settings
Global settings are applied for all Identity Services.
- At the time of writing a single setting for the max. idle timeout of user sessions is applied.
- Should the lifetime of a token provided by an external Identity Service be different from the max. idle timeout then JOC Cockpit will try to renew the token with the Identity Service. Renewal of a token does not require the user to repeatedly specify credentials for login.
- Identity Services can restrict the lifetime of tokens and they can deny renewal of tokens. If a token cannot be renewed then the user session is terminated and the user is required to perform a login.
