Description

Hubble accesses GitHub Enterprise log data via [administrative shell](https://help.github.com/enterprise/2.11/admin/guides/installation/administrative-shell-ssh-access/) and the database via MySQL. It would be awesome if there would be a read-only administrative shell user limited to `/var/log` and a read-only user for SQL queries.

This would remove the (potential) risk for modifications to the instance. Plus, the user could get a lower priority or could be blocked in case of performance issues.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are identified. Start by reviewing Hubble's current GitHub Enterprise administrative-shell and MySQL access paths described in the issue. Done would mean defining read-only administrative-shell access limited to /var/log and read-only SQL access, with a way to reduce priority or block access during performance issues.
