Hailing from the coastal state of India, Andhra Pradesh, I share a profound interest in everything open-source and computers from my childhood, which led me to my current position at Red Hat and contributing back to the wonderful open-source community.

Running a highly available Identity and Access Management with Keycloak

A single sign on solution for your customers and employees should be designed for high availability without a single point of failure. Keycloak is no exception to this.
A clustered Keycloak deployment in a single site provides sufficient availability for many. An increasing number of organizations need to utilize multiple sites for improved resiliency or to meet legal requirements. Keycloak overhauled its capabilities and now provides deployment blueprints to the community.
This talk presents how we approached the problem, and the challenges we faced. Expect to dive into concepts like load shedding, cache stampedes, and automated failover. See tools like Gatling, Helm, OpenTelemetry, Kubernetes Operators and cloud infrastructure in action. We will also provide an outlook for the next steps in our journey.
These insights will help you to improve your Keycloak deployments as well as design and test your own applications so they can withstand high load and site failures.

Greener SSO with Keycloak, Kepler, and kube-green

Cluster owners can use Kepler and other tools to optimize user applications' energy consumption on Kubernetes. But what about the different integral parts of your Cloud Native platform, like Keycloak authentication? We can make that efficient too, and we'll show you how.

Keycloak, an open-source IAM solution, is vital for securing applications. Deploying it in its default configuration can be resource-intensive. Integrating Kepler and kube-green with your application offers a significant opportunity to reduce the carbon footprint and cost of Keycloak instances.

In this session, we will walk through a live demo of configuring Keycloak with Kepler for energy monitoring and kube-green for resource management. Attendees will learn about the environmental impact of traditional Keycloak deployments and deploying more eco-friendly applications. We will also share practical examples that could be leveraged with other applications and plugins that run on the Kubernetes stack.
