Recommended Cloud, user authentication service

Posted on October 27, 2020

My next web server application should use a service such as OAuth2 for user authentication and management, ideally providing user hierarchy management via a web UI (eg. company -> department -> project -> user), optional 2FA etc. Is there a recommended provider or Marketplace product that works well with DigitalOcean droplets and provides these features? DigitalOcean do seem to have their own OAuth service but not the front-end I’d be looking for.

Hi @archieallison,

I’ll recommend configuring it on your own, configuring GitHub, Google and Twitter for example shouldn’t take that much time. Additionally, based on the application you are using, OAuth2 is configured differently.

What you can do is once you have decided what application you’ll use to see how you can integrate OAuth2 with it.
