## Private Project Support
> Experimental support [introduced][mr-2] in GitLab 9.1.
Expanding on the [Kubernetes deploy example above](#using-the-kubernetes-deploy-example-project-with-Nginx),
When a project has been marked as private, GitLab's [Container Registry][container-registry] requires authentication when downloading containers. Auto deploy will automatically provide required authentication information to Kubernetes, allowing temporary access to the registry. Authentication credentials will be valid while the pipeline is running, allowing for a successful initial deployment.
you can also use it to expose canary deployments. Canary deployments should
include `track: canary` and have a different deployment name than normal
deployments.
```yaml
After the pipeline completes, Kubernetes will no longer be able to access the container registry. Restarting a pod, scaling a service, or other actions which require on-going access to the registry will fail. On-going secure access is planned for a subsequent release.

## PostgreSQL Database Support
> Experimental support [introduced][mr-8] in GitLab 9.1.
```yaml
In order to support applications that require a database, [PostgreSQL][postgresql] is provisioned by default. Credentials to access the database are preconfigured, but can be customized by setting the associated [variables](#postgresql-variables). These credentials can be used for defining a `DATABASE_URL` of the format: `postgres://user:password@postgres-host:postgres-port/postgres-database`. It is important to note that the database itself is temporary, and contents will be not be saved.
