Orion APIs authentication through Keycloak

Question

I want to add authentication on my Orion APIs through my Keycloak IdM. I know it is possible to use Orion together Pep Proxy Wilma and Keyrock to do this task, and a possible workaround can be to integrate keyrock with keycloak at this link (7 years ago).

Do you have some news or suggestion about this?

Thank you in advance.

there is a (relatively new) solution available. Instead of Wilma, you can use the Kong-API-Gateway as a PEP-Proxy with the FIWARE-PEP-Plugin. That way, authentication(and authorization) can be delegated to Keycloak. You can find more on that in those 2 presentations:
