2# Dex: "an identity service that uses OpenID Connect to drive authentication for other apps", acting
3# as "a portal to other identity providers through 'connectors'" - LDAP, SAML, GitHub, Google, Active
4# Directory. It defers authentication rather than owning a user directory, and keeps its state in
5# etcd, Kubernetes, PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite or memory ("Documentation"). It issues tokens and leaves
6# authorization to the applications that consume them.
