FreeIPA: The Untamed Titan of Enterprise Identity

Introduction

While Keycloak and FusionAuth focus on the web, FreeIPA operates on a different level. It’s not just an authentication server. It’s an integrated solution for identity management and security policies in UNIX/Linux environments. It’s not designed for quick web app integration but for building centralized access control at an enterprise scale. If your infrastructure consists of many Linux servers, this tool is your ally.
