+This project provides an [Authorizer](https://kafka.apache.org/documentation/#security_authz) implementation for Apache Kafka that extends the Kafa's default authorizer (`kafka.security.auth.SimpleAclAuthorizer`) to enable getting XACML authorization decisions from a XACML-enabled PDP's REST API as well, according to the [REST Profile of XACML 3.0](http://docs.oasis-open.org/xacml/xacml-rest/v1.0/xacml-rest-v1.0.html). [AuthzForce Server](https://github.com/authzforce/server) and [AuthzForce RESTful PDP](https://github.com/authzforce/restful-pdp) both provide such REST API. Usually, the latter is enough for simple use cases, unless you need a PAP API, multi-tenancy, etc. in which case AuthzForce Server is a better fit (see the [documentation for the full list of features](http://authzforce-ce-fiware.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Features.html))
