-----------------------------------------
Summary: Support Kafka Cruise Control for trusted proxy
authentication
Key: KNOX-2288
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KNOX-2288
Project: Apache Knox
Issue Type: Bug
Components: cm-discovery
Affects Versions: 1.3.0
Reporter: Viktor Somogyi-Vass
LinkedIn's Cruise Control is a project that aims to operate Kafka in an
automatic hands free mode. It provides a REST API to allow users to interact
with it. The REST API supports querying the workload and optimization proposals
of the Kafka cluster, as well as triggering admin operations.
Controlling authentication and authorization is very important as Kafka
administration operations should be restricted to the designated operator.
Moreover it is desired to be used in various environments and authentication
methods, therefore it would be an advantage to integrate with Knox where it
would sit behind the Knox proxy which would perform the authentication for
Cruise Control and would forward the user's ID.
