-----------------------------------

             Summary: Keystore Management Service with already configured demo 
keystore.
                 Key: NIFI-4114
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4114
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Extensions
            Reporter: milind pandit
            Priority: Minor


Within NiFi flow, its required to import additional third party trusted 
certificates into the trust store in order to make the REST/SOAP service call 
over SSL.
To simplify the overall operational overhead, provide UI with keystore 
management service to administer keys and certificates from one location.
Either this can be part of Ranger functionality or model within HDF to manage 
third party security certificates.
The certificate manage page can display the existing certificates in the 
keystore and from where you can perform many operations like
Generate key pair, import and export trusted certificates, delete certificates 
etc.

In addition to this feature within NiFi provide out of box already configured 
SSLContextService controller service with demo keystore.
This will help in accelerating the development for business use case. When 
there is need to invoke SSL based service, user
can use the UI to import the Trusted cert into the demo keystore and use the 
already configured SSLContextService controller service
within to NiFi processor. 
This significantly reduces the complexity and time to build the use case which 
requires SSL communication.
