Authenticate externally, authorize locally

Read Original

The article details a technical design for a multi-tenant service where users belong to multiple tenants with different permissions. It advocates for "authenticate externally, authorize locally," using an external Identity Provider (IDP) for authentication tokens while managing permissions and user signup (via a SAGA pattern) internally within the application's boundaries.
