SSO Providers

Providers

• Auth0
  • https://auth0.com/
• AWS Cognito
  • http://aws.amazon.com/cognito

Pros:

• Have someone manage your user accounts for you
  • (Security, balancing, availability)
• They take care of the CRUD

Auth0

• Prettier interface
• Better documentation

Options

• https://auth0.com/docs/quickstart/webapp/nodejs
• https://auth0.com/docs/quickstart/backend/hapi/01-authorization

AWS Cognito

• Cheaper
• "Drier" / Bleak interface
• Confusing as hell
• You can give individual users IAM roles
• Can be configured with serverless
  • But not all configuration options

Cons:

• You may only be able to log in to one SSO at a time.
  • This is bad if you want to attache one user account to multiple providers
