Policy as Code - an introduction to Open Policy Agent

We're very glad to announce our next Docker Rosenheim Meetup, this time in collaboration with Anders from Styra. The main topic of the meetup is Open Policy Agent and how to decoupling policy from application logic. We hope you will join us. We're looking forward to meet you virtually.

Abstract:

In just a few years, Open Policy Agent (OPA) has established itself as the de-facto standard for policy based guard rails around Kubernetes clusters - now it’s moving into our microservices! In this talk we’ll explore the benefits of decoupling policy from application logic, and how OPA can help bring order to an increasingly distributed, heterogeneous and complex tech stack.

Speakers:

Anders Eknert is a developer advocate at Styra with a long background in software development, security and identity systems in primarily distributed environments. When not in front of his computer, he enjoys watching football, cooking and Belgian beers
