> Currently, the following config is set in {{gateway-site.xml}}:
> {noformat}
> <property>
> <name>gateway.service.alias.impl</name>
>
> <value>org.apache.knox.gateway.services.security.impl.RemoteAliasService</value>
> </property>
> {noformat}
> Since there is no other {{remote}} config defined, Knox falls back to
> `ZooKeeper`. No ZK-related configs either -> just an unnecessary round in
> remote alias provider every time that checks if remote exists (not) then turn
> to local.
> Relevant logs:
> {noformat}

> Given all these, it doesn't make sense to default to the remote alias service
