About the new Auth system for self-hosted Lakefs: From what I read here, moving forward, from version 1.33, the free version, self-hosted, will only support a single super user (and as many access/secret key pair) ? For us who currently have multi user, we need to choose one that will be migrated to the new lakefs version >=1.33? And the other users and their access key will disabled ?

Hi @HT So with the recent changes - lakeFS OSS will support a single user with a single set of credentials. Installations which have more than 1 user / sets of credentials will require to migrate a single user for that purpose (as explained here). To continue working in the current configuration, you will need to run an external auth server (such as the example provided under

contrib/auth

. Note that this will require passing additional configuration to lakeFS (as described here) Hope this answers your questions

1. LakeFS OSS will always need External Auth Server 2. LakeFS OSS: there are no option to have multi user, even if you migrate from an existing multi user system. Is it correct ?

Hi @HT, Both your points are correct. Even at the same time: you can retain existing functionality by running lakeFS and the contributions with service side by side. I think this blog post by @einat.orr and @Oz Katz should provide clarity.
