FusionAuth and Cerbos co-hosted a webinar on deploying authentication (AuthN) and authorization (AuthZ) solutions, discussing the trade-offs between control and responsibility as organizations evaluate deployment options. The discussion explored three deployment models: self-hosted, single-tenant cloud, and multi-tenant SaaS, using analogies to illustrate the differences in infrastructure management and security requirements. Key considerations for deployment decisions included compliance, technology, operational risk, and cost, with a focus on flexibility and adaptability as business needs evolve. The webinar emphasized that there is no single right answer and that understanding these factors allows organizations to make informed decisions about their authentication and authorization infrastructure.
