Limitations and issues with our implementation

We should take a minute here to consider what parts of our service might need improving if you are to use it in a real system and what the most optimal/practical mitigations might be. As the critical part of working with containers and the cloud is evaluating the pros and cons of larger architectures, this is something you should always try to do when developing a new system or changing an existing one.

• The database has no authentication
  • Class: Security, very high impact
  • Mitigation: Private cloud or use authentication
