-------------------------------------------
Summary: KeyProvider KeyVersion should provide the key name
Key: HADOOP-10757
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10757
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: security
Affects Versions: 3.0.0
Reporter: Alejandro Abdelnur
Assignee: Arun Suresh
Currently the {{KeyVersion}} does not provide a way to get the key name to do a
reverse lookup to get the metadata of the key.
For the {{JavaKeyStoreProvider}} and the {{UserProvider}} this is not an issue
because the key name is encoded in the key version name.
This encoding of the key name in the key version name cannot be expected in all
KeyProvider implementations. It is common for key management systems to use
UUID to refer to specific key materials (KeyVersions in Hadoop parlance).
