Chapter 13. Configuring kube-rbac-proxy for Eventing

The kube-rbac-proxy component provides internal authentication and authorization capabilities for Knative Eventing.

You can globally override resource allocation for the kube-rbac-proxy container by using the OpenShift Serverless Operator CR.

Note

You can also override resource allocation for a specific deployment.

The following configuration sets Knative Eventing kube-rbac-proxy minimum and maximum CPU and memory allocation:

KnativeEventing CR example

apiVersion: operator.knative.dev/v1beta1
kind: KnativeEventing
metadata:
  name: knative-eventing
  namespace: knative-eventing
spec:
  config:
    deployment:
      "kube-rbac-proxy-cpu-request": "10m"
1 

      "kube-rbac-proxy-memory-request": "20Mi"
2 

      "kube-rbac-proxy-cpu-limit": "100m"
3 

      "kube-rbac-proxy-memory-limit": "100Mi"
