Permission Systems that Scale

Build Enterprise-Grade Permission Systems
This workshop helps you level up your permission systems to handle the complexity of enterprise applications. We will take a project and evolve the permission system from a basic role-based approach to a scalable attribute-based system. Additionally, we will cover common permission pitfalls, popular permission system libraries, alternative permission systems, and how to integrate these systems in a way that is easy to maintain. Lastly, we will create our own basic permission system library to gain a deeper understanding of how these systems work.

You’ll learn:

• Learn how to create maintainable permission systems that scale with the complexities of your application
• Learn about role-based, attribute-based, and relationship-based access control systems and the pros/cons of each
• Discover how to connect your permission system to your database to automatically apply permissions for every query
