From Zero to Hero: Keycloak as your Backend as a Service
In this talk, you will learn how Keycloak can be used as a "backend as a service" for user authentication and identity management. We'll start with the fundamentals of OAuth2 and OpenID Connect to build a solid understanding of how authentication and authorization work. From there, we’ll explore how to configure and customize Keycloak for user registration, custom fields, password resets, 2FA, one-time login emails, theming, and webhooks to inform third-party systems about user state changes.

Beyond that, we’ll dive into deployment strategies, covering containerized setups, scaling challenges, and best practices for production. We'll also discuss common pitfalls and how to avoid them. Finally, we’ll see how all of this seamlessly integrates into a Quarkus application.

How to get trustworthy enterprise AI in your favorite IDE

Using current and evolving examples of Microsoft's introduction of AI into Visual Studio Code and IntelliJ Idea, we'll explore how to evaluate the trustworthyness of AI for use in large enterprises, from technical and business perspective.

Aspects of trust include the ability for enterprises to

• trust that none of their code is being scanned and funneled back to Microsoft to train their models.
• trust that using AI does not introduce any IP violations that would place the enterprise at risk of copyright infringement.
• trust that the AI is suited to common tasks, such as large scale code migration across the entire enterprise.

You'll also learn the absolute latest on how Microsoft is bringing the power of AI to you, in the IDEs you already know and love.
