Re: [keycloak-user] Maximum number of clients (applications) in a realm

Hi Orestis, the alternative is also to use our admin REST api directly and invoke REST endpoints for create/update client directly without using our admin console.

For instance, i've also considered creating a new realm per machine but this won't work either. A user's identity should be global but also have access to selected machine(s).
