Open Policy Agent
This feels very much like OpenFGA[0]. I've been evaluating authorization tool for one of my side projects and honestly most tools feels like creating relationships in a graph-like database and querying to see if there is/isn't relationship between two entities. Is there more to this (besides the implementation details) or am I missing something from these tools?

How to setup Keycloak for separate frontend and backend services?
Thanks for the answer. I played around with Keycloak for a bit and I saw that roles could be mapped as token claims, however for systems where you need fine grained access control (where roles are not enough) you need some other solution. One option could be to use an external authorization system. One such system could be OpenFGA https://openfga.dev/ that is based on Google Zanzibar https://research.google/pubs/pub48190/ research paper. This answer on SO is also helpful https://stackoverflow.com/a/75047064/10781180
