## [Keycloak](https://devtune.ai/verticals/authentication-identity/keycloak)

Description: Keycloak is a battle-tested, open-source IAM platform that enables organizations to add authentication and access control to any application without building identity infrastructure from scratch. It acts as a central identity broker, handling SSO, MFA, user federation, and fine-grained authorization across web apps, APIs, and microservices. Built on Quarkus for a lightweight cloud-native footprint, it runs on bare metal, Docker, Kubernetes, and OpenShift. Its zero-licensing-cost model makes it especially attractive for large user bases where SaaS per-MAU fees would be prohibitive, at the cost of self-managed operational complexity.
