Big Bang Packages

Each Big Bang Package is present in the Big Bang Package repository and broken up into several sub-groupings.

Each package has at least two CODEOWNERS. Responsibilities are outlined here.

Core

Core packages are supported Big Bang packages that have to be enabled and are located at Big Bang Core. Core packages are platform/admin level packages that are leveraged by other packages.

Auth Service

authservice helps delegate the OIDC Authorization Code Grant Flow to the Istio mesh. authservice is compatible with any standard OIDC Provider as well as other Istio End-user Auth features, including Authentication Policy and RBAC. Together, they allow developers to protect their APIs and web apps without any application code required.

Package Utilities

Application utilities are deployments of utilities used by one or more packages. They are usually not user facing, and are dependencies of user facing packages.

A clear an obvious example of this is PostgreSQL.
