Event-Driven Hooks for Organization Creation, Updates, and Deletion

Keymate's custom Keycloak SPI emits structured, tenant-aware events on every organizational lifecycle action—enabling real-time sync across systems, accurate policy enforcement, and seamless auditing.

Real-Time Sync of Organizational Changes via Event-Driven Architecture

From Org Creation to Audit Trail—All Evented, All Synced

Whether an admin creates a new department or updates an existing unit's attributes, the Organization Lifecycle Events SPI ensures every change is:

Event-Driven Organization Sync

This enables a truly event-driven IAM architecture—no polling, no lags, no missed state transitions.

Example: Every organizational change is emitted as a structured event to the Event Hub for downstream consumption.

Key Components:

Emitted as a structured event

Tagged with tenant, org ID, and actor context

Sent to the Event Hub (Kafka)

Processed by downstream systems like OpenMetadata, HRMS sync, or policy engines
