Migratating on prem application from IBM Webseal to Okta Access Gateway
Does anyone of have best practices or experience with replacing IBM Webseal with Okta Access Gateway? We currently redirect traffic through the reverse proxy(webseal) with URI routing to the back end application. Example: website.domain.com/app1, website.domain.com/app2, website.domain.com/app3, etc. I believe there is going to be custom policies that will need to written in order to achieve that same behavior with OAG but I currently don't know where to begin to start the process. From what I understand about OAG is the applications are handled like so app1.domain.com, app2.domain.com, app3.domain.com, etc.

While there is no explicit guide for the migration from IBM Webseal, there are some resources on the subject:
