Identify provider, identity management, authorization server

94 views Asked by At

I am baffled while understanding OAuth 2.0, OpenID connect and other mechanisms for securing API's. I did online search, but results are varying with contradicting info.

==> Authentication server.

==> Authorization server.

==> Identity provider (IDP).

==> Identity server.

==> Identity manager

who stores userid / password, is it stored in Identity provider, if so, is there any open source identity provider "server" which we can install on local laptop?

who does issue ID token once a user is authenticated, same about access token, who issue access token.

I see some video tutorials, but no one tells which part of the system actually does these tasks. Can anyone help understand?
