Running Marquez container as non root user

Open ghacrow opened this issue 6 months ago • 1 comments

I am currently in the process of deploying Marquez onto a GKE cluster using Helm. One of the security restrictions of the cluster is that containers cannot run as the root user.

I notice in the Dockerfile there is no USER command, and hence it is still being run as root.

I wanted to understand if you can forsee any issues with the container being executed as a non-root user, and the possibility of adding a USER command into the container. I am aware that sometimes running containers as non-root uses may not work due to some of the underlying code, hence wanted to ask.

Cheers!
