Keycloak in practice
Field notes from the team that runs Keycloak every day.
What is Keycloak?
Keycloak is an open-source identity and access management server. It gives your applications login, single sign-on, multi-factor authentication, social login and user federation with LDAP or Active Directory, using the OpenID Connect, OAuth 2.0 and SAML standards. Red Hat started it in 2014, and it is now a Cloud Native Computing Foundation project.
Is Keycloak free?
Yes. Keycloak is free and open source under the Apache 2.0 license. What costs money is running it in production: servers, a database, high availability, upgrades and someone on call. On Cloud-IAM you can start with the Freemium plan, free for up to 100 users.
Will the Keycloak admin REST APIs remain unchanged?
You get full access to Keycloak's API — just like with an on-premise setup.
What migration path does your team recommend on old Keycloak version?
For your migrations, we recommend checking out our dedicated documentation page — it walks you through everything you need to upgrade to the latest Keycloak version.
What version of Keycloak do you support?
Every new Keycloak release is thoroughly tested by our team before being made available to our clients. We ensure there are no security flaws or regressions, so you always run the latest and most secure stable version (latest version supported).
