Security & Access Control
Role in the Project
Manages authentication, authorization, and user role assignments.
Strengths & Weaknesses
Strengths:
- Centralized authentication (OAuth2, JWT, SAML support)
- Fine-grained access control via RBAC
Weaknesses:
- Self-hosted Keycloak requires more maintenance than managed services
- Session scaling for high-traffic deployments needs additional tuning
Available Technologies & Comparison
- Auth0: Managed, easy setup, but costs scale with users.
- Keycloak: Self-hosted, customizable, but requires DevOps management.
- Firebase Auth: Simple but lacks enterprise-level RBAC.
Chosen Approach
- Keycloak for its flexibility and open-source nature, integrated with OAuth2 and JWT for token-based authentication.
