Using SQL Account Store in Geneva

Geneva has me pretty hot and bothered as a potential to solve complicated auth and SSO issues that have been presented to us by our customers. I understand that Geneva supports custom and SQL-based attribute stores. However, I need support for custom and SQL-based account stores.

Unfortunately, I can't find any solid confirmation or denial (page 23) that it will be supported when it is released, except that it isn't supported in Beta 2. This gives me hope that it will, but I should know better.

Question: Can anyone settle this matter definitively?

Figures, I whine about not finding an answer, and immediately after posting I do.

No, Geneva will not support SQL account stores; AD only. They are potentially reviewing it for a future release.

+1 A:

It's correct that Geneva Server is not going to support other account stores that AD, however you can "easily" achieve this using Geneva Framework. There are several examples out there that show how you can build a custom sts that uses any kind of user store.

Thanks for the clarification. You wouldn't happen to have any particularly useful article(s) in mind, would you?

Sure, have a look at the Starter STS on codeplex: http://startersts.codeplex.com/
