09/14/2022, 8:13 AMIs cloud going to have OIDC support? AWS' Application Load Balancer has support for this and could authenticate requests before they get to the application. This cuts a lot of traffic that would otherwise have to go through NAT to Ory Cloud. NATs are very expensive. For a comparison - Ory Cloud is 18usd/mo, but NAT is at least 37usd/mo and this doesn't even include the traffic.

Is cloud going to have OIDC support?Can you elaborate what you mean by this? Ory Cloud (and underlying Ory Kratos) supports OIDC on the client side and as of recently also on the server side (powered by Ory Hydra)

09/15/2022, 12:29 PM@fast-lunch-54279 Do you think Ory cloud/hydra will work with this https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticloadbalancing/latest/application/listener-authenticate-users.html ? There's a list of steps perfomed by the Load Balancer. If you could just have a glance, it could save me a lot of time
