WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
Yes, I setup a cluster with no SPFs. That means an HA setup for the external load balancer. I use HAProxy for my ELB, and setup 2 instances with a VRRP + keepalived to provide HA to the ingress controller. I run the control plane private, accessible only from localhost. I setup kube-oidc-proxy (https://github.com/jetstack/kube-oidc-proxy) to expose the API server with single sign-on on the ingress controller, and use the kubelogin plugin (https://github.com/int128/kubelogin) to provide OIDC support to kubectl. I then setup Keycloak to handle OIDC/OAuth2/SAML and syncing to Active Directory, and setup groups in Active Directory to control acccess to clusters. Devs each get their own namespace in the dev cluster, with mostly cluster-admin access to their namespace. Staging/Prod clusters are locked down, with read-only access to devs. Thanks to the OIDC auth to the APIServer, when employees are onboarded & offboarded, we only need to add/remove them from groups in Active Directory and everything else just magically syncs.
