What we like
Flexible approach to building authorization logic with a DSL. No need to rely on a single centralized service - centralize the logic, which can return “yes, if” for validation with local data. Makes it easier to reason about complex auth across microservices. SDKs for Node, Python, Go, Ruby, and .NET. Check in your auth .polar files to Git.
Tradeoffs
Default model uses Oso Cloud, but there are options for self-hosting and running a hybrid cache layer for HA.
