  • How do you Integrate Emissary Ingress with OPA
    2 projects | dev.to | 28 Apr 2022
    Open Policy Agent is a well-known general-purpose policy engine and has emerged as a policy enforcer across the stacks be it API gateways, service meshes, Kubernetes, microservice, CICD, or IAC. OPA decouples decision making from policy enforcement such that whenever your software needs to make a decision regarding the incoming requests, it queries OPA. OPA-Envoy extends OPA with a gRPC server that implements the Envoy External Authorization API, thus making itself compatible to be as an external authz server to Emissary.

    I'm observing the quick_start.yaml provided by OPA and trying to comprehend what's happening in the inject.rego resource (proper name?) under the ConfigMap. Can anyone break it down for me a bit? I think I have an inkling of what's happening but not sure.
