What is Keystone?
Keystone is the identity service used by OpenStack for authentication (authN) and high-level authorization (authZ). It currently supports token-based authN and user-service authorization. It has recently been rearchitected to allow for expansion to support proxying external services and AuthN/AuthZ mechanisms such as oAuth, SAML and openID in future versions.

Use Cases
Essex Roadmap (as per current discussions in OpenStack Design Summit in Boston - October 2011):
- RBAC (with Dashboard and core project integration) <
>- Fine-grained access control
- Non-admin users
- Create your own roles
- RBAC discussions: http://etherpad.openstack.org/canhaz
- Reset baseline of code
- expandability, future development
- Stability
- Performance
- Deployability
- Documentation
Topics for Folsom: KeystoneFolsomSummitTopics
Releases
- Diablo
- Core functionality (calls shared by all implementations)
- Extensions(calls that are specific to the implementation; ie: enabling company "ACME" user, role, and group structure)
- Essex (Keystone is part of OpenStack core for Essex)
- Call for blueprints (feature freeze by start of e-2; code freeze by start of e-4: http://wiki.openstack.org/EssexReleaseSchedule)
- Folsom
Originally Scheduled for Essex:
- User structure (blueprint)
- Full AuthZ structure (blueprint)
- AuthZ - Explicit Capability Mapping
- AuthZ - Empty Roles
- AuthZ - Restricted Roles
- Scopes
- SCIM protocol (blueprint)
- Service endpoint location (https://blueprints.launchpad.net/keystone/+spec/service-endpoint-location)
- Federated Auth-Z requirements for Zones - FederatedAuthZwithZones
- The Service (ie: nova) shouldn't really care about the Role of the user. But we should be able to go back to the Auth-Z service to say "Can <token> [execute verb] on <some resource>" and get back a True/False from keystone. Nova itself, for example, shouldn't have to remember what capabilities a role has. But this may be cached.
- Identifying full-path URI for Keystone-Token (Keystone-Essex-Federated-Token)
- SQL schema migrations (ie - sqlalchemy-migrate migrations).
- Folsom
