# IdentityServer for cloud-native applications
88

9-
IdentityServer is an open-source authentication server that implements OpenID Connect (OIDC) and OAuth 2.0 standards for ASP.NET Core. It's designed to provide a common way to authenticate requests to all of your applications, whether they're web, native, mobile, or API endpoints. IdentityServer can be used to implement Single Sign-On (SSO) for multiple applications and application types. It can be used to authenticate actual users via sign-in forms and similar user interfaces as well as service-based authentication that typically involves token issuance, verification, and renewal without any user interface. IdentityServer is designed to be a customizable solution. Each instance is typically customized to suit an individual organization and/or set of applications' needs.

IdentityServer4 is open-source and free to use. You can add it to your applications using its NuGet packages. The main package is [IdentityServer4](https://www.nuget.org/packages/IdentityServer4/) that has been downloaded over four million times. The base package doesn't include any user interface code and only supports in memory configuration. To use it with a database, you'll also want a data provider like [IdentityServer4.EntityFramework](https://www.nuget.org/packages/IdentityServer4.EntityFramework) that uses Entity Framework Core to store configuration and operational data for IdentityServer. For user interface, you can copy files from the [Quickstart UI repository](https://github.com/IdentityServer/IdentityServer4.Quickstart.UI) into your ASP.NET Core MVC application to add support for sign in and sign out using IdentityServer middleware.
