Hello! I am one of the maintainers of Ory Keto. We spent a lot of time and effort to read, learn, and analyse the Google Zanzibar paper (https://research.google/pubs/pub48190/) and the release brings that all together. There are still many things missing, but with a great community we hope to build the “Kubernetes” of permissions and access control! If you have any questions, I am here to help

Hi - as someone who's been on the keto diet a lot over the pandemic and also in the before times - just wanted to chime in saying, you're going to have a heck of a time trying to break through the mountains of pages + SEO about keto recipes/books. I'd really suggest calling this something else.

As a coffee drinker and world traveler, I have the same problem with finding information about Java.

Searching for "Ory Keto" returns their pages. As does "Keto Auth", "Keto API", and so on. They seem to have done fine.

I suppose "Keto REST" might be harder, but I don't know how many ambiguous queries like that are common.

Hm good point. The project itself exists already for quite some time now, this is just a complete rewrite. It is named after an ancient Greek goddess: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceto (all of our projects are named after Greek mythology).

Just be more specific, like "java bean"... oh.

Joking aside, I dislike stuff that reuses overly generic concepts and names. I get why it was chosen, it's sorta cute, and it fits the theme, but it would be very nice if it was a uniquely named concept.

I’d love to see the SEO involved in a blog post for a Chef recipe for deploying “Keto”.

I think that that strategy is roughly how drugs all end up with such odd names.
