ziti VS OPAL

If you are not aware of what OpenZiti is, this is the description available on their website:

fwiw, its back up. stars for zrok and ziti (i.e., the parent repo) are super appreciated!

Create an AUR package for the ziti binaries

I ask because I'm going to start with the simplified-docker-compose.yml file instead of the more complicated one for starters

OpenZiti is the most sophisticated and simple-to-use ZTNA platform on the planet. Allows you to create micro-segmented ZTNA networks by desktop application, web application, device, containers, API, and servers. All data is distributed dynamically across an overlay mesh network focused on routing performance, self-healing, and latency. It has desktop clients on all operating systems, pre-built SSH consoles, and SDKs in different languages to integrate OpenZiti into any product natively. And best of all, it's Open-Source. Seriously, try it, you'll be mind-blowing...

This repo hosts the OpenZiti SDK for NodeJS, and is designed to help you deliver secure applications over a OpenZiti Network - https://github.com/openziti/ziti-sdk-nodejs.

zrok.io seems fit for this purpose though you'd have to do a little work like combining it with FileGator or similar. Future releases would add this functionality directly, you could just watch the project. It is fundamentally designed for web app & webhook testing. It's built on top of a zero-trust networking overlay technology called openziti.io. There are developer discourse channels to help.

Open Policy Administration Layer (OPAL) is an OSS project created to aid with Policy Engine management, which keeps them updated in real-time with data and policy updates. Supporting both OPA and AWS’ Cedar, OPAL offers two important features:\

Another tool that can help you deploy a Policy as Code-based solution in 2024 is OPAL, the Open Policy Administration Layer. OPAL is an open-source project that provides a comprehensive policy-based service for applications. With one click, you can deploy a full architecture of a Git-based centralized policy store with decentralized policy engines running as a sidecar with your applications. OPAL also provides a unified architecture to sync all the data you need with the policy engines.

Inspired by Braden’s post, this blog explores the journey of Reddit's team, focusing on their strategic decisions, the challenges they encountered, and the innovative solutions they crafted. Alongside Reddit's in-house efforts, we also examine OPAL, an open-source solution that aligns with the functionality of Reddit’s system, presenting an alternative approach for organizations seeking sophisticated authorization management solutions in the field of Ad Tech.

We reviewed how Netlfix used OPA with a a replication pattern; and decided to create a similar yet more extensible and event-driven solution - and so OPAL (Open Policy Administration Layer) was born - creating a scalable, zero-trust way to manage policy engines and their policy/data at scale.

If you find this post helpful,please give OPAL a star on GitHub! Your support helps us make access control easier and motivates us to write more articles like this one.

We are considering connecting this provider to our open-source tool OPAL. Are you using OPAL? Do you think such integration would be beneficial?

One example of such an administration tool is OPAL, an open policy administration layer that works with OPA. OPAL tracks changes in external services and propagates the data to the OPA PDPs so the authorization requests can handle existing data and return faster results.
