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.
the good new is, for the 95% of projects that can tolerate it, aws the good parts are actually both simple and easy[1].
it’s hard to find things you can’t build on s3, dynamo, lambda, and ec2.
if either compliance or a 5% project demand it, complicated solutions should be explored.

> Iteration speed and blazing fast automated tests.
Wholeheartedly agreed!
It is also nice to have that additional assurance of being able to self-host things (if ever necessary) and not being locked into a singular implementation. For example, that's why managed database offerings generally aren't that risky to use, given that they're built on already established projects (e.g. compatible with MySQL/MariaDB/PostgreSQL).
> When I discovered minio, I suddenly got much more confident coding against s3.
MinIO is pretty good, but licensing wise could become problematic if you don't work on something open source but ever want to run it in prod. Not really what this discussion is about, but AGPL is worth mentioning: https://github.com/minio/minio/blob/master/LICENSE
That said, thankfully S3 is so common that we have alternatives even to MinIO available, like Zenko https://www.zenko.io/ and Garage https://garagehq.deuxfleurs.fr/ both of which are good for both local development as well as hosting in whatever environments necessary.
