ORY Oathkeeper is an Identity & Access Proxy (IAP) and Access Control Decision API that authorizes HTTP requests based on sets of Access Rules. The BeyondCorp Model is designed by Google and secures applications in Zero-Trust networks.

An Identity & Access Proxy is typically deployed in front of (think API Gateway) web-facing applications and is capable of authenticating and optionally authorizing access requests. The Access Control Decision API can be deployed alongside an existing API Gateway or reverse proxy. ORY Oathkeeper's Access Control Decision API works with:

• Ambassador via auth service.
• Envoy via the External Authorization HTTP Filter
• AWS API Gateway via Custom Authorizers
• Nginx via Authentication Based on Subrequest Result

among others.

This service is stable, but under active development and may introduce breaking changes in future releases. Any breaking change will have extensive documentation and upgrade instructions.

resource consumption. ORY Hydra is not an ORY Hydra is a hardened OAuth2 and OpenID Connect server optimized for low-latency, high throughput, and low resource consumption. ORY Hydra is not an identity provider (user sign up, user log in, password reset flow), but connects to your existing identity provider through a consent app.

ORY Keto: Access Control Policies as a Server
