Project Description
NCIM program includes authentication and authorization, account management, password recovery,
session management, global/service log out, Ovi purchase experience etc. NCIM project is used in all
the Ovi services for authentication, authorization, account management, single sign on etc. This
program has four nodes --SSO Core -- which takes care of authentication and authorization based on
user roles. SSO Extension node -- takes care of all the interface APIs for other services. SSO Queue
Node --provides messaging interfaces for various events.
SSO database: this provides storage and access mechanisms.
SDK Project
SDK program includes authentication and authorization APIs for various integrating services like Ovi
store, ovi music, Ovi chat etc. Each of these services need to connect to Nokia account backend for
identity management. All these services have their own interfacing APIs and it would become difficult
for NCIM to interact with all the service APIs. SDK takes care of this connectivity issue and provides
easy and faster integration with service APIs. These are set of Java library/APIs for better and easy
connectivity.
Scrum based framework was implemented for this project. As a Scrum master I was overseeing the
scrum adherence, facilitating & coaching the team for efficient and effective implementation of the
functionality, incrementally.
