Hi all,I am new to kubernetes,
What about the users in kubernetes, will the users are created in host or kubernetes, then how, please explain
brian H:
This is covered in the CKA training course, but when you’re talking about users you have three kinds. You have k8s cluster admins, developers deploying applications to a k8s cluster, and application users. Application users are managed in the application, outside of the k8s cluster. Cluster admins and developers interact with the cluster via the k8s API server so they are created in the k8s cluster. Here’s the k8s docs on authentication: https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/access-authn-authz/authentication/

Thank you, what I understood is ,instead of normal users in Linux, we will use roles here,is It correct?
brian H:
That’s correct. The cluster admin or dev doesn’t need to auth with the underlying host, they just need to auth with the k8s cluster.
