## Background

tbd

## Proposal

==== 1 =====

There is a core eDF which is self-contained and does not have any impelmented dependency to external platforms.
eDF depends on abstractions.
Each embdding into customer infrastructure works with adapters which implement the abstraction.

==== 2 =====

eDF has an own IAM. This may either hold the principals and permissions itself when there is no other IAM or proxy and map them when integrated into external enterprise IAMs.
