⁠Pulling

docker pull readystack/zitadel:v4.15.3-CE-ubuntu24.04-r1

⁠Deployment

Single container, single static Go binary (CGO-free), foreground process — a cloud-native Identity & Access Management (IAM) / OIDC + OAuth2 + SAML + OpenID provider. REQUIRES an EXTERNAL PostgreSQL database the customer provisions and points the container at via ZITADEL_DATABASE_POSTGRES_* env vars — there is NO embedded/SQLite database. zitadel creates and migrates its own schema (event-sourced) in that postgres on first start. NOT a docker-compose-only or Kubernetes-only product, but it is NOT self-contained: postgres is a hard external dependency.
