OPA was one of the most cursed things I have ever worked with.

  Used it during my last gig for policy enforcement on a multi-tenant platform for internal applications. I found it relatively easy to use and at a good level of abstraction to make the policies relatively reusable.

  OPA, or rego? My experience working for Styra was that most people seemed to grok where OPA fit in fairly quickly, but struggled with rego. It's a very powerful language and well worth learning I think, but it's an investment for sure.

    I agree, Rego was a hell of a thing to try and figure out.

      Rego is a DSL and the main purpose of DSLs is to simplify things (compared to general purpose programming languages), so in my opinion Rego is not a good DSL.
