Hi team,

Delegation token framework is going to be finished soon (added in FLIP-211
<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLINK/FLIP-211%3A+Kerberos+delegation+token+framework?src=contextnavpagetreemode>
).
Previously there were concerns that the current implementation is bound to
Hadoop and Kerberos authentication. This is fair concern and as a result
we've created a proposal to generalize the delegation token framework
(practically making it authentication agnostic).

This can open the path to add further non-hadoop and non-Kerberos based
providers like S3 or many others.

One can find the FLIP in:
- Wiki:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLINK/FLIP-272%3A+Generalized+delegation+token+support
- document:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/12tFdx1AZVuW9BjwBht_pMNELgrqro8Z5-hzWeaRY4pc/edit?usp=sharing

I would like to start a discussion to make the framework better.

BR,
G
