We use Kerberos, with LDAP (389DS) as our storage backend, which makes standing up Kerberos servers really easy, and keeps replication in perfect sync unlike normal Kerberos "replication". Together with SSSD and sudo-ldap this all makes a pretty powerful combination.
On RHEL/CentOS platforms, install krb5-server-ldap and configure /etc/krb5.conf accordingly:
[dbmodules]
REALM = {
db_library = kldap
ldap_kerberos_container_dn="dc=some,dc=container"
ldap_kdc_dn = "uid=kdc,cn=config"
ldap_kadmind_dn = "uid=kadmin,cn=config"
ldap_service_password_file = /var/kerberos/krb5kdc/realm/service.keyfile
ldap_servers = "ldaps://ldap1.realm ldaps://ldap0.realm ldaps://ldap2.realm"
}
Of course there's more to it, but you'll have to google the details, I can't remember the details off the top of my head. Create the appropriate LDAP credentials of course, as well as creating the LDAP service.keyfile ...

have you considered using Kerberos instead of ssh keys?
its fairly transparent and doesn't require any patches.
