100 million identities and hundreds of customers later, we’re on our successful 12th year of WSO2 Identity Server.
We saw some awesome achievements this year, such as being named an overall leader of Identity API platforms and a product leader in Access Management and Federation by KuppingerCole. We also made the configuration of the product super simple, added support for RESTful APIs easy implementation of Sign in with Apple (did someone say zero code change?), and revamped documentation so that everything looks peachy.
