MiddlewareMiddleware, or "glue," is a layer of software between the network and the applications. This software
provides services such as identification, authentication, authorization, directories, and security. Merit is
collaborating with Internet2 on the Internet2 Middleware Initiative (I2-MI), which promotes standardization
and interoperability and is working toward the deployment of core middleware services at Internet2 universities.
