Abstract
The subject technology receives a first request to create a container service, the request indicating a service specification for creating the container service. The subject technology generates a set of endpoints based on the service specification. The subject technology generates a set of roles based on the service specification. The subject technology stores service metadata related to the set of endpoints and the set of roles in a metadata database. The subject technology instantiates the container service at a container services cluster, the container services cluster including a set of worker nodes, the container service being deployed on a worker node from the set of worker nodes, and enforces security policies based on the roles and service metadata. The subject technology coordinates with Role Based Access Control (RBAC) and network policies of the subject database system and transparently enforces the same policies over in the subject container system.
