OpenAUTH is an emerging authentication provider that aims to operate in a mostly stateless manner while maintaining minimal data storage requirements. It primarily focuses on simplifying the authentication process across varied implementations, such as Cloudflare KV and DynamoDB. Some notable features include support for PKCE and JWKS. However, concerns arise around its recommended practices for token storage (e.g., localstorage) and whether it supports protocols like SAML. Additionally, past experiences highlight that while statelessness is ideal, practical scenarios often require data insights to troubleshoot user issues, particularly in B2B contexts.
