I would like to make some of my self-hosted services externally accessible. Currently I use a VPN to access stuff externally, however this doesn’t work on all use-cases. I also use Tailscale for some things.

I would love to use cloudflare tunnels and another auth solution (like keycloak) to replace Tailscale and the VPN.

Is this feasible?

My end goal would be to setup Immich for my family, and have them not have to worry about Tailscale, a VPN or anything other than some initial login to keycloak (for example)

    Authentication is simply identifying a user.

    Authorization is securing access to assets.

    You can find a lot of reading about this if the distinction is confusing.
