-----------------------------------
Summary: JWT SSO Token and Authority
Key: HADOOP-9781
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9781
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Sub-task
Components: security
Affects Versions: 3.0.0
Reporter: Larry McCay
Various token formats exist for enterprise SSO solutions. In order to limit the
number of token formats a SSO system for Hadoop needs to process we need to
define an initial out of the box format.
By transforming an incoming token into a canonical format the Hadoop
authentication mechanisms need only be able to understand the SSO token formats.
This JIRA is intended to introduce one such format.
It is based on the JSON Web Token format - numerous jwt profiles are emerging
in the industry - see:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-oauth-jwt-bearer-04 as an example.
