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.
