------------------------------------
Summary: Support authentication and authorization running Nifi on
http inside service mesh
Key: NIFI-11632
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-11632
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 1.21.0
Environment: Kubernetes with service mesh
Reporter: Dheeraj Joshi
In service mesh deployments typically TLS is terminated at the envoy proxy and
HTTP traffic is forwarded to the service. This eliminates the need for
applications to handle TLS requirements
At present Nifi needs to be secure with HTTPS to perform the authentication and
authorization. This is mainly due to various authentication methods supported
in Nifi
When Nifi is deployed on a secured mesh Nifi could still run on HTTP while the
HTTP is performed at the sidecar proxy
Hence, it is desired to enable authentication and authorization while Nifi is
running on HTTPÂ
