Jeroen Baten - Making Ansible Playbooks to Configure Single Sign-on for Popular Open Source Applications
Abstract
TL;DR: I spend 11 month developing a set of playbooks to configure SSO for several open source application and/to a Keycloak identity server. In my talk I present the process and some gotchas.
The Dutch Onestein organization (specialized in Odoo implementations) invested 11 month of research. Goal was to create a set of easy to use Ansible playbooks to configure single sign-on (SSO) for popular open source applications. This would enable them to authenticate to a Keycloak server as the central identity provider.
These playbooks have been published on https://github.com/onesteinbv/project_single_sign_on and are meant to be a starting point.
The list of supported applications are currently:
- Bitwarden
- CMDBuild
- Jenkins
- Gitlab
- Nextcloud
- Odoo
- Xwiki
- Zabbix
