Key topics covered

  • Define your architecture: Understand Zitadel's identity & access management architecture principles, discussing how it will fit into your system. This crucial step will define what parts of the business logic will be handled by Zitadel and what remains to be built by you. Zitadel supports anything from CIAM, Workforce, or complex multi-tenancy authentication scenarios.
  • Design user onboarding: Demonstrate the options and customization available for B2B or CIAM user registration and onboarding that fits your use case.
  • Customize user login: Showcase and help customize the login experience, including user self-service (eg, password reset).
  • Basic administration: Focus on user and tenant management, access control, auditing capabilities, and ease of configuration within the Zitadel platform. This includes demonstrating how administrators can manage identities, roles, and permissions effectively.
  • Migration plan: Address strategies and best practices for migrating existing user directories and authentication systems to Zitadel. This will cover data mapping, just-in-time provisioning, bulk user provisioning, and minimizing downtime during the transition.
  • DevOps (Operation): Explore the operational aspects of Zitadel, including deployment options (on-premise, cloud), automation capabilities through APIs, monitoring tools, and logging. The goal is to show how Zitadel integrates into existing DevOps workflows and supports efficient operations. This will cover components, data storage, and how the system handles high availability and disaster recovery.
  • Integration and customization: Demonstrate how Zitadel integrates with various applications and services. This includes exploring standard protocols like OAuth2, OpenID Connect, and SAML, as well as discussing SDKs, APIs, and workflow orchestration (Actions) for seamless integration with existing systems.
  • Security Best Practices & Go-Live Checkup: Review Zitadel's built-in security features, compliance standards, and recommended security configurations. This section will also include a go-live checklist to ensure the platform is securely deployed and ready for production use.
