Securing Spring Microservices with Keycloak – Part 2
In the first part we setup a local Keycloak instance. In this blog we will see how we can leverage Keycloak to secure our frontend. For this purpose we will create a small Spring Boot application that will serve a webpage. The next and last blog will show how authentication can be used between services.
As mentioned we will create a small Spring Boot microservice and secure it using Spring Security and Keycloak. The service that we will create in this blog is the "frontend" Spring Service. It serves a simple web page that displays a hello message including the users email adres as registered in Keycloak. The next blog we will build the service and propagate the authorization from to frontend to service we cal. This way we build a complete Single Sign-On solution.
