Awesome Zanzibar 
Zanzibar is a fine-grained authorization (FGA) system, originally proposed by Google in a research paper. It allows for the definition of a complex access control policy, in which permissions are defined in terms of resources, actions and conditions. The main goal of Zanzibar-based services is to provide a flexible authorization system that can be used from simple web applications to complex distributed systems.
