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.
First of all, extensions are developed and maintained by the Quarkus team. You can find them on the Quarkus GitHub repository. They integrate seamlessly into the Quarkus architecture as they can be processed at build time and be built in native mode with GraalVM.
Recently, Red Hat started to get involved in GraalVM and distribute its own addition called Mandrel. It also started hosting application with its own cloud platform called OpenShift.
Before talking about the internal architecture of Quarkus, we need to present GraalVM.
In fact, it builds on top of proven standards such as Eclipse MicroProfile or frameworks such as Vert.x or JAX‑RS.
By producing small binaries with fast startup, Quarkus is perfectly suited for orchestration platforms like Kubernetes.
