Take a look at service binding

[nicolaferraro]

It provides a clean way by which we can connect to services in the same cluster without the users having to provide credentials and all that stuff.

We can e.g.

kamel run Api.java --connect mypostgresdb

(did I already write a similar issue in the past?)

And have your Camel K operator resolve the connection details for the database and inject them into the integration pod, e.g. making a JDBC connection available in the registry.

The same for other brokers or Kafka.

I can take a look at this

[lburgazzoli]

@johnpoth would be nice to have sort of proposal, like https://github.com/apache/camel-k/blob/master/proposals/monitoring-security.adoc so it can be turned into a documentation soon or later.

[johnpoth]

Sounds good! I'll create one once I have more visibility on this. Creating a small MVP at the moment

[johnpoth]

Do you have any graph visualization tools you recommend for the camel-k proposals/docs ?

[astefanutti]

I've used http://lucidchart.com for the diagrams in the secured monitoring proposal. I recommend it, though you may have to request a corporate license. Other tools can be used, and you can even try tools like https://github.com/ivanceras/svgbob 😄.
