1. A centralized management system comprising:
a central management console;
a federated login system embedded in the centralized management system, the federated login system including at least one processor configured to perform operations in a method of federated login and authorization allowing a user of the centralized management system to manage connected clusters or products without performing an individual cluster or product login, the operations comprising at least:
configuring an authority of the user based on one or more options, the one or more options including a cluster object type, a cluster type, and a data source;
selecting a service level agreement (SLA) domain associated with each option configuring the authority;
based on a registration of the centralized management system, enabling a Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML)-based federated login using the central management console, the federated login programmed into a central management console registration workflow and a Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) framework to support transparent handshake under a SAML protocol and authorization synchronization between the connected clusters or products; and
receiving, from a connected cluster or product, a SAML-based federated login handshake based on a registration of the connected cluster or product with the centralized management system.
