Features

Purpose-built primitives for modern authorization systems.

Compose policy and identity decisions with an API-first model designed for reliability, velocity, and auditability.

Fine-grained authorization

Enforce policy across RBAC, ABAC, and relationship-based checks with one decision API.

Policy as code

Version and ship policy updates with Git workflows, full diff history, and safe rollouts.

Low-latency decisions

P95 under 10ms with in-memory evaluation and globally distributed edge decision caches.

Audit-ready trails

Every allow/deny result ships with traceable reasoning for compliance and incident analysis.

Event-driven sync

Replayable webhooks and event streams keep entitlements in sync across your stack.

Composable architecture

Drop-in SDKs, management APIs, and policy bundles designed for modern platform teams.

API-first core

Typed REST API and SDKs keep auth logic portable across frontend, backend, and edge runtimes.

Enterprise security

mTLS, key rotation, and signed webhook delivery hardened for regulated workloads.

Global scalability

Deploy multi-region with deterministic policy evaluation and locality-aware data replication.

Developer velocity

Local policy playground, CI checks, and generated clients ship changes faster with confidence.

authorization-core — Java SDK
Java & JVM support

Drop-in authorization for Spring Boot and Quarkus.

One Maven dependency gives you a declarative @Resource annotation that wires directly into the authorization platform — no boilerplate, no extra configuration class.

  • Zero-boilerplate — annotate any method or class with @Resource
  • Auto-registers resources with the authorization service on startup
  • Spring Boot auto-configuration via spring.factories
  • Quarkus CDI interceptor support out of the box
  • Client-credentials token refresh handled automatically
  • Toggle enforcement per environment with a single config flag

API-first architecture

Designed as a control plane for distributed authorization.

Use one management API and one decision API across app backends, edge workers, and internal services.

Policy Decision Point

Stateless decision API evaluates policy bundles with deterministic outcomes and sub-10ms latency.

Policy Administration

Version policy definitions, run simulations in CI, and release safely using environment promotion.

Data Connectors

Stream principals, resources, and attributes from your source-of-truth systems with replay support.

Security and scalability

Production hardening from day one.

Run critical permission checks with confidence across single-tenant and multi-tenant environments.

Platform guarantees

Reliability and compliance defaults suitable for SaaS and enterprise workloads.

  • Regional failover with consistent policy snapshots
  • At-rest and in-transit encryption with tenant-aware keying
  • Signed decision logs and immutable audit history
  • Rate-limiting and adaptive abuse prevention
Code examples

Integrate decision checks in minutes.

Use first-party SDKs and typed clients for low-friction implementation across any stack.

import { AuthorizationClient } from "@authorization-service/sdk"

const client = new AuthorizationClient({
  apiKey: process.env.AS_API_KEY!,
})

const decision = await client.decisions.check({
  tenantId: "tenant_prod_42",
  principal: { id: "user_123", roles: ["editor"] },
  resource: { type: "document", id: "doc_91" },
  action: "read",
})

if (!decision.allow) throw new Error("Forbidden")
SDK support

Consistent API ergonomics in every language.

Unified concepts across SDKs make it simple for polyglot teams. The Java SDK adds a unique annotation-first model for Spring Boot and Quarkus.

Official SDKs

Generated clients, typed request models, retries, and observability hooks.

Developer experience

Built for teams that care about velocity and correctness.

Ship secure authorization without forcing every product team to become policy experts.

CLI and local playground

Test policy scenarios locally before they hit production traffic.

Typed API schemas

OpenAPI and SDK generation keep consumers and backend contracts aligned.

Policy CI checks

Block breaking policy changes with deterministic simulation tests.

What teams say

Adopted by platform and security engineers.

Authorization Service gave our platform team a single control plane for every permission decision.

Lena D.Staff Engineer, Atlas Commerce

We replaced fragmented access checks with auditable policy workflows in under two weeks.

Mikael R.Head of Security, Northstar AI

The SDK ergonomics and docs quality are exactly what a developer platform should feel like.
