# Keycloak Quickstart Guide [![Slack](https://slack.min.io/slack?type=svg)](https://slack.min.io)

Keycloak is an open source Identity and Access Management solution aimed at modern applications and services, this document covers configuring Keycloak identity provider support with MinIO.

## Prerequisites

Configure and install keycloak server by following [Keycloak Installation Guide](https://www.keycloak.org/docs/latest/server_installation/#installing-the-software).

# KMS Guide [![Slack](https://slack.min.io/slack?type=svg)](https://slack.min.io)

MinIO uses a key-management-system (KMS) to support SSE-S3. If a client requests SSE-S3, or auto-encryption is enabled, the MinIO server encrypts each object with a unique object key which is protected by a master key managed by the KMS.

## Quick Start

# Select API Quickstart Guide [![Slack](https://slack.min.io/slack?type=svg)](https://slack.min.io)

Traditional retrieval of objects is always as whole entities, i.e GetObject for a 5 GiB object, will always return 5 GiB of data. S3 Select API allows us to retrieve a subset of data by using simple SQL expressions. By using Select API to retrieve only the data needed by the application, drastic performance improvements can be achieved.

# WSO2 Quickstart Guide [![Slack](https://slack.min.io/slack?type=svg)](https://slack.min.io)

WSO2 is an Identity Server open source and is released under Apache Software License Version 2.0, this document covers configuring WSO2 to be used as an identity provider for MinIO server STS API.
