  1. Ory Kratos

    Headless cloud-native authentication and identity management written in Go. Scales to a billion+ users. Replace Homegrown, Auth0, Okta, Firebase with better UX and DX. Passkeys, Social Sign In, OIDC, Magic Link, Multi-Factor Auth, SMS, SAML, TOTP, and more. Runs everywhere, runs best on Ory Network. (by ory)

    application to obtain limited access to an HTTP service

    Yet somehow all of these proprietary software companies (FusionAuth, Auth0, …) cling to the only „open protocol“ to push „portability“ of protocols. But the problem of portability is really a problem of data (you user’s data and migrating that data from system A to B), not the way you exchange or validate tokens or cookies.

    I think it’s exciting to see new open source projects like https://github.com/ory/kratos or https://github.com/supertokens/supertokens-core that finally break up this misconception!
