OpenStack Keystone
==================

Keystone provides authentication, authorization and service discovery mechanisms via HTTP primarily for use by projects in the OpenStack family. It is most commonly deployed as an HTTP interface to existing identity systems, such as LDAP.

From Kilo release Keystone v3 endpoint has definition without version in url

Things to improve
=================

* Keystone as service provider (SP) - must be running under Apache (same as with PKI token)
* Keystone with MongoDB backend - where is it?
* IdP is owned by domain, domain corresponds to billable account - IdP administration
* IdP Shiboleth alternatives - mod_auth_mellon

Generally this SP/IdP stuff is a little unstable - how to let SP know identity has changed, no visibility in UI (IBM has some not in upstream yet)
