--------------------------------------
Issue Type: Improvement (was: Bug)
> Support Kafka Cruise Control for trusted proxy authentication
> -------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KNOX-2288
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KNOX-2288
> Project: Apache Knox
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: cm-discovery
> Affects Versions: 1.3.0
> Reporter: Viktor Somogyi-Vass
> Priority: Major
>
> LinkedIn's Cruise Control is a project that aims to operate Kafka in an
> automatic hands free mode. It provides a REST API to allow users to interact
> with it. The REST API supports querying the workload and optimization
> proposals of the Kafka cluster, as well as triggering admin operations.
> Controlling authentication and authorization is very important as Kafka
> administration operations should be restricted to the designated operator.
> Moreover it is desired to be used in various environments and authentication
> methods, therefore it would be an advantage to integrate with Knox where it
> would sit behind the Knox proxy which would perform the authentication for
> Cruise Control and would forward the user's ID.
