Keycloak pricing context

Keycloak is free and open source under the Apache 2.0 license with no per-user, per-MAU, or licensing fees. Total cost of ownership is driven by infrastructure (servers/Kubernetes, databases), DevOps engineering time for setup and maintenance (estimated $510–$625+/month for a minimal HA cluster), and ongoing patching effort. Enterprise support and hardened releases are available via the Red Hat build of Keycloak, which is included in Red Hat Runtimes, Red Hat Application Foundations (RHAF), and Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform (OCP) subscriptions (priced per CPU core, not per user). Third-party managed hosting services (e.g., Phase Two, Cloud-IAM, Inteca) offer architecture-based pricing ranging from small tiers to enterprise contracts. No SaaS/cloud-hosted offering is provided directly by Red Hat.
