NWS-ID

The NWS-ID is your unique user identifier for NETWAYS Web Services, regardless of whether you use NETWAYS Cloud, NETWAYS Managed Kubernetes® or our Managed Services.

With it you can authenticate in MyNWS, manage your cluster with kubectl, or log in to the NWS-ID Portal.

Behind the scenes the NWS-ID is built on Keycloak, an OpenSource Identity and Access Management solution (IAM). Advantages of Keycloak include, among others:

  • User Federation
  • Single Sign‑On (SSO)
  • User Management
  • Detailed Authorization
  • Two‑Factor Authentication (2FA)

NETWAYS ❤️ OpenSource

Just like our entire platform, our user management is OpenSource and free of charge – so we don’t have to pass any hidden licensing fees on to you!
