Keystone is an OpenStack service that provides API client authentication, service discovery, and distributed multi-tenant authorization by implementing OpenStack's Identity API.

This documentation is primarily targeted towards contributors of the project, and assumes that you are already familiar with Keystone from an end-user perspective; however, end users, deployers, and operators will also find it useful.

This documentation is generated by the Sphinx toolkit and lives in the source tree. Also see the getting-started/community page for other ways to interact with the community.
