Start here.

By no means is oidc-provider limited to only run on heroku or only using the showcased options.

Supported deployments include mounting the OP to an existing nodejs application, either koa or express. Running those using cluster mode spread across several hosts, behind haproxy, nginx, ELB or exposing an https server directly.

It is possible to run a completely standalone app for interactions and it's also possible to run oidc-provider on AWS Lambda.
