OpenFGA is a high performance and flexible authorization/permission system built for developers and inspired by Google Zanzibar.
Relationship-based access control made fast, scalable, and easy to use.
OpenFGA is an open-source authorization solution that allows developers to build granular access control using an easy-to-read modeling language and friendly APIs.
OpenFGA takes the best ideas from Google’s Zanzibar paper for Relationship-Based Access Control, and also solves problems for Role-based Access Control and Attribute-Based Access Control use cases. The modeling language is powerful enough for engineers, but friendly enough for other stakeholders on your team as well.
Transparency and peer review are important for building secure, stable, and sustainable software. OpenFGA’s RFC process and governance model invite anyone to become a contributor, and collaboratively develop the public roadmap. Come create the next standard for authorization with us!
