This training is perfect for you if you…
Prior knowledge of OAuth 2 or OIDC is helpful but not required—we’ll cover the basics together.
The training environment is based on Docker Compose, which keeps operational overhead to a minimum. You’ll receive all YAML definitions, configuration files, and Keycloak extensions in advance via a GitHub repository.
Required:
Notes:
Docker Desktop may require a fee depending on the platform—please check in advance. Podman can be used as an alternative, but its use is not supported.
This training gives you a complete overview of all Keycloak topics - practical and tailored to your needs. The choice is yours:

You don’t just want to get Keycloak up and running—you want to do it right. From deployment and high availability to OAuth 2 / OIDC fundamentals, authentication flows, multi-tenancy, and user federation: In this Keycloak training course, you’ll learn everything you need to know for professional, secure Keycloak operations.
‍
We’ll start by setting up a Keycloak server from scratch—containerized with Docker, but with configuration options that you can adapt to any infrastructure (Kubernetes, Podman, or a traditional deployment on the file system).
Since an authentication system must never fail, we’ll set up a high-availability cluster with a load balancer right away. We manage realm configurations as config-as-code using the Keycloak Terraform provider and the Admin CLI, so that changes are traceable, versionable, and repeatable. Finally, we set up monitoring with system and event metrics and run initial performance tests.

Day 2 – Understanding OAuth 2, OIDC, and Keycloak Configuration
Theory Meets Practice: We’ll develop a shared understanding of the OAuth 2.0 and OIDC specifications—including current best practices and deprecated features—and immediately apply it to a live Keycloak server. We’ll cover tokens, claims, client scopes, and realm and client configurations in detail.

Day 3 – User Management, Tenants, and Authentication Flows
Der mächtigste Part: Wir richten Organisationen als Mandantenkonzept ein, ordnen Benutzer zu und laden sie gezielt ein. User Profile mit verwalteten Attributen, Berechtigungen und Validatoren geben dir die volle Kontrolle über deine Benutzerdaten. Danach verbinden wir LDAP als User Federation und konfigurieren externe Identity Provider (Entra ID, Social Login, Bund.ID u. a.) für Identity Brokering. Den Abschluss bildet das Design komplexer Authentifizierungsflows, Nutzung von Passkeys und die Konfiguration von Required Actions.
