Overview
This is a repackaged open source software product wherein additional charges apply for patching the operating system and the maintenance provided by Kurian.
Keycloak is an open-source identity and access management (IAM) solution that offers centralized authentication, authorization, and user management for applications. It simplifies authentication, access control, and user administration, providing enhanced security and user management features. Keycloak supports Single Sign-On (SSO), identity federation, user registration, role-based access control (RBAC), multi-factor authentication (MFA), and authorization services. It integrates with existing systems, provides an admin console and management APIs, and supports high availability and scalability for large-scale applications. With Keycloak, developers can implement secure and seamless user authentication and access management in their applications.
Kurian offers pre-configured software applications, including Wordpress, Jenkins, various databases, LAMP stack, Ansible, DevOps tools, and monitoring applications. These applications are widely utilized by system administrators and DevOps engineers around the world. Additionally, Kurian provides hardened images based on CIS benchmarks for selected Linux distributions. These images ensure enhanced security and compliance. The Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) by Kurian are created following official installation steps, allowing users to perform additional customizations using official documentation. This approach ensures flexibility and avoids being tied to any specific AMI vendor's automation processes. Users have the freedom to tailor the configurations according to their specific requirements and leverage the comprehensive documentation provided by Kurian.
The highly automated AMIs released by Kurian, updated with the latest OS and security patches, need very little or no customization before they are used in building production environments.
