Migrating from OpenMRS ID to KeyCloak - Potential sustainable ID system solution identified
- Proof of concept set up
- Roadmap for migrating users to the recommended OpenMRS ID system.
| Medium 175 hours | Our current ID system is beyond its end of life and unstable. This leads to significant interruptions for OpenMRS projects prioritized by users. A new OpenMRS ID system will reduce service interruptions, reduce infrastructure volunteer workload, and eliminate security vulnerabilities.
We would like the user 'handle' to be shared across Jira, Confluence and Discourse. The new ID system should either be free for open source projects, or extremely cost-effective for the amount of users we have. We are open to hosting open source tools, using cloud projects, or using Atlassian ID directly as OpenID or similar. | DevOps Authentication and SSO IT Strategy |

O3: User Onboarding | Medium 175 hours | Implement User Onboarding in the Test 3 and O3 demo environments, like these designs show. Introduce users to major features in a typical generic outpatient workflow. | React |
