Raghu Angadi commented on HADOOP-6419:
--------------------------------------


I think so. RPC implementation in Hadoop is well isolated from user code, 
making it some what easier to replace with it with another one. I am interested 
in implementing a Netty based RPC server (as prototype).. I am planning to 
spend more time on this this week. will check how it would fit in with AVRO-341 
and HDFS-892.



> Change RPC layer to support SASL/token based mutual authentication

> The authentication mechanism to use will be SASL DIGEST-MD5 (see RFC-2222 and 
> RFC-2831). Since J2SE 5, Sun provides a SASL implementation by default. Both 
> our delegation token and job token can be used as credentials for SASL 
> DIGEST-MD5 authentication.
