Conference Application Demo

This is a small application demo used to showcase integration with a separate Keycloak service to secure a microservices architecture provisioned using the Eclipse MicroProfile framework.

This application domain is to manage the speakers and session talks for a conference event.

Important

The Keycloak realm used by this application should have a client named conference-web. This demo assumes that this client is deployed (along with the Keycloak realm) in http://localhost:8888/. A sample realm configuration file is provided in the keycloak/data directory that can be imported to quickly test the integration in this demo.

This application is composed of:

• 2 microservices applications:

  • A speaker microservice used to manage the speakers that will talk at the event.

  • A session microservice used to manage the session talks held at the event.

• A small web application designed as an Angular 16+ SPA that uses the previous microservices.

Warning

JWT validation doesn’t work correctly in the current Payara Platform release 5.2020.5. Fixes are expected to come for the next release and this project will be updated to clarify it as such.
