I hope "AuthZ" is just a temporary codename, that will be changed if/when they open source their work. authz/authn are very generic terms that already mean something and it's distasteful when companies squat on such terms. Imagine if a company came around and created a networking-related project and called it "TcP". > During our discovery process, we evaluated both open source and vendor products. > But we had a problem: There weren’t any open source implementations available. We decided to build our own system, adding several of our own modifications to make it an even better fit for Carta. There's no mention or implication that they'll release it as open source, this seems to be an engineering blog post (for hiring lead gen or building the engineering brand of the company or whatever).
