Java unfortunately doesn't load certificates directly, but rather store them in a {keytool-docs}[keystore]. The default trust store under `$JAVA_HOME/lib/security/cacerts` contains only CA's which are shipped with the Java distribution and there's the `keytool` tool that knows how manipulate those key stores. The containerized application may not know the CA certificate in build time, and so we need to add it to the trust-store in deployment. To automate that we can a combination of an init-container and a shared directory to pass the mutated trust store to the container before it runs.
