Summary

You're considering breaking up with your current Identity Provider (IdP) and migrating to a new one, like Authentik. This can be a complex process due to the importance of your IdP in managing user access across your entire workforce and applications. However, dynamic migration makes this process smoother and more fault-tolerant by allowing you to define an external source of user accounts and pass an OAuth or SAML source dynamically into the new IdP. This approach enables a seamless experience for both users and administrators, reducing costs, improving security, and providing greater flexibility in customizing the authentication experience.
