Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When your Kafka cluster's running tight
Every action needs to see the light
Authorizer logs will track each call
Who accessed what, we log it all
Topic permissions, ACL checks too
Consumer groups and what they do
Security policies enforced with care
Audit trails show who was there

[Chorus]
A-C-E trace every face
Authorizer, CRD, Evidence base
Log it, lock it, never drop it
Compliance flows when audit shows
A-C-E trace every face
Immutable in every space
Track it, stack it, compliance backed it
Strimzi logs know where data goes

[Verse 2]
Kubernetes watches every change
CRD mutations in its range
When KafkaUser gets modified
Or KafkaTopic's been applied
API server logs the call
Who made changes, logs them all
Cluster operators leave their mark
In audit streams both light and dark

[Chorus]
A-C-E trace every face
Authorizer, CRD, Evidence base
Log it, lock it, never drop it
Compliance flows when audit shows
A-C-E trace every face
Immutable in every space
Track it, stack it, compliance backed it
Strimzi logs know where data goes

[Bridge]
Immutable pipelines never lie
Evidence stored up in the sky
Write-once patterns seal the deal
Compliance officers can feel
Confident that every trace
Has a permanent resting place
Tamper-proof and crystal clear
Audit history persists here

[Verse 3]
OpenShift or native K8s
Audit policies never miss
Webhook backends catch each event
Store them where they won't be bent
Syslog, files, or streaming flows
Pick the pipeline that best knows
Your compliance requirements true
Immutable logs will see you through

[Chorus]
A-C-E trace every face
Authorizer, CRD, Evidence base
Log it, lock it, never drop it
Compliance flows when audit shows
A-C-E trace every face
Immutable in every space
Track it, stack it, compliance backed it
Strimzi logs know where data goes

[Outro]
From Kafka auth to K8s state
Audit logging seals your fate
Compliance ready, evidence steady
Strimzi keeps your logs ready
