Abstract

Dynamic supply of trusted certificates to a containerized environment by mounting a directory into a container image can be implemented as computer-readable methods, media and systems. The directory stores trusted certificates related to a tenant account at a platform system. The trusted certificates include user specific trusted certificates relevant for authentication at an external system and default certificates relevant for an operating system running at a containerized runtime environment of the tenant account. The trusted certificates are used during execution of functions requested by a user of the tenant account. A function that is defined for a tenant account is executed at a container instantiated at the containerized runtime environment of the platform system. The function dynamically uses the trusted certificates maintained at the directory that is mounted at the containerized runtime environment, where at least one of the trusted certificates is used for authentication at the external system.
