+## Experiments
+
+### Twirp + gRPC (AuthZ)
+
+This experiment exposes a gRPC endpoint that aligns with the [`Ability.allowed?(subject, permission, resource)`][1] interface from GitLab's declarative authorization logic.
+
+It demonstrates a headless authorization service that provides a low-latency decision point for other services to verify permissions.
+
+Actors in this experiment:
+
+* Headless authz service: A facade over GitLab’s existing declarative policies.
+* API (Resource Server in OAuth terms): A slimmed-down GitLab REST API that delegates authorization decisions to the authz service.
+
+### SAML, OIDC, OAuth
+
+This experiment showcases how a separate authx service can handle both authentication and authorization using standard protocols:
+
+* SAML & OIDC for authentication
+* OAuth for authorization
+
+Actors in this experiment:
+
+* Authx service: Acts as a SAML Identity Provider and an OAuth Authorization Server.
+* API: A slimmed-down GitLab REST API.
+
+### API Gateway
+
+This experiment explores a stateless authorization mechanism by integrating a policy DSL (such as [Casbin][3]) into a reverse proxy.
+Authorization decisions are made early in the request pipeline based on HTTP request headers and body content.
+
+### Sidecar Process
+
+This experiment demonstrates a sidecar approach for making authorization decisions within an nginx process.
+Inspired by [Open Policy Agent][4] deployments. This experiment:
+
+* Uses lua bindings in nginx to connect to a local client process.
+* The client process proxies requests to a gRPC based policy decision service.
