In that blog post I want to highlight how I did my first configuration of the App Identity and Access Adapter for Istio Mixer in my Cloud Native Starter system on a free IBM Cloud Kubernetes cluster.
In my last blog post I described how I did the installation of the App Identity and Access Adapter.
Once more I want to highlight, that the cool thing from my perspective of App Identity and Access Adapter is “that the adapter can be configured to work with any OIDC compliant identity provider, which enables it to control authentication and authorization policies in all environments including frontend and backend applications. And, it does it all without any change to your code or the need to redeploy your application.”
I did a combination of the steps from the videos inside the IBM Cloud App ID service documentation and of the videos from Anton Aleksandrov. With that in mind I applied needed changes of that configurations in the videos to run it on our Cloud Native Starter setup.
