I want to deploy application using Kubernetes, one of the used components will be a GridDb database, I used the following article to deploy it – https://griddb.net/en/blog/creating-a-kubernetes-application-using-griddb-and-go/, the deployment manifest is shown below. One thing that I want to change is the securityContext, I’d like to avoid running as a root user. However, in documentation it says “we need to run as root user to have the sufficient permissions to save the changes to the config file”. Any advise how I should proceed?
