No support for "plugins" as far as authentication, or to elaborate a bit, how do you go about running the 'auth' component in multiple VPC and have some degree of sync? Perhaps a use case for an underlying LDAP directory, or ..?



We support OIDC connectors, so you can plug in LDAP using https://github.com/coreos/dex as one of the providers, or simply roll a new OIDC provider customized to your needs.


Why OIDC? Why not use something much more standardized like PAM?


Mostly because we wanted to support Google auth out of the box and OIDC is a good way to get this + give options for pluggable auth to everyone else.
