AuthZed is celebrating its 5th anniversary and marking this milestone by launching AuthZed Cloud, a new iteration of its authorization infrastructure. While reflecting on the journey of building a startup that has successfully reached five years, the company emphasizes the importance of making its powerful authorization solutions more accessible. AuthZed Cloud builds on the capabilities of AuthZed Dedicated by offering a self-service product that allows companies to easily register, deploy, and manage their authorization systems without lengthy procurement processes. Key features include self-service registration, granular access controls, and usage-based billing, which make AuthZed's enterprise-grade technology more attainable for a wider range of companies. Despite using a shared control plane, AuthZed Cloud maintains high isolation standards, ensuring scalability and reliability. The early access reception has been positive, with long-time customers transitioning to the new platform due to its affordability and the ease it provides in managing permissions. As AuthZed looks forward, the company remains committed to solving the complex challenges of authorization in modern software development, making it accessible to teams of all sizes.
