Today's Build Agenda

You're building the authentication bridge that connects your distributed log platform to enterprise identity systems. Today's implementation creates SSO integration supporting Google OAuth 2.0 and Okta SAML, enabling seamless user authentication across your log processing infrastructure.

What We're Building:

  • OAuth 2.0 flow implementation for Google SSO

  • SAML 2.0 integration for Okta enterprise authentication

  • JWT token management and session handling

  • Multi-tenant authentication routing

  • Real-time authentication dashboard

The Enterprise Reality Check

Enterprise customers don't want another password to manage. They need your log platform to integrate seamlessly with their existing identity providers. Companies like Datadog and Splunk became enterprise-ready by mastering SSO - it's the difference between a tool and a platform.

When Slack integrated with enterprise SSO providers, their enterprise revenue grew 300% in two years. Your log processing system needs the same enterprise authentication capabilities to compete in the corporate market.
