SpiceDB

Hi guys, can you recommend a proxy/gateway that allows authzed calls to be made very easily? We have third party tools and 1-2 very old services that we don't want to extend anymore, but would like to connect.

hi 👋🏻can you elaborate what it means as "making authzed calls very easy"? I'm not sure if you know but SpiceDB comes with an HTTP Gateway, if that helped integrate

I guess you are thinking of a proxy gateway that somehow infers from the incoming request how to perform an authorization request to SpiceDB?

I know of Envoy's External Authorization Filter (https://www.envoyproxy.io/docs/envoy/latest/configuration/http/http_filters/ext_authz_filter) and https://github.com/zalando/skipper is also pretty extensible

Yes you are right, that what I meant 🙂
