Hi arul.sg777,

ASP.NET Membership was designed to solve site membership requirements, which involved Forms Authentication, and a SQL Server database for user names, passwords, and profile data. Since the log- in/log-out functionality is based on Forms Authentication, the membership system can't use  OWIN. OWIN includes middleware components for authentication, including support for log-ins using external identity providers (like Microsoft Accounts, Facebook, Google, Twitter), and log-ins using organizational accounts from on-premises Active Directory or Azure Active Directory. OWIN also includes support for OAuth 2.0, JWT and CORS.
