Abstract:
We’d like to share with you some of the lessons we learnt over time as we implemented authorization, permission management and access control in a variety of applications differing in scale, domain and purpose, and other constraints - in industries ranging from robotics all the way to healthcare.
There is a lot of aspects that affect design choices here. Use a handcrafted solution, or a general-purpose, plug-in library such as Permit with its automatic Ecto? Define hard-coded authorization rules or build a more flexible solution?
