Chapter 19. Applying security context to Streams for Apache Kafka pods and containers

Handling of security context depends on the tooling of the OpenShift platform you are using.

For example, OpenShift uses built-in security context constraints (SCCs) to control permissions. SCCs are the settings and strategies that control the security features a pod has access to.

By default, OpenShift injects security context configuration automatically. In most cases, this means you don’t need to configure security context for the pods and containers created by the Cluster Operator. Although you can still create and manage your own SCCs.

For more information, see the OpenShift documentation.
