Jimmy Xiang created HBASE-8660:
----------------------------------
Summary: [rest] support secure REST access
Key: HBASE-8660
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-8660
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: REST, security
Reporter: Jimmy Xiang
REST interface is accessed over http, which is most likely done from outside of
a HBase cluster, perhaps over internet. It will be great if we can make it
secure. To be secure, we need to:
1. authenticate the caller,
2. check authorization if needed,
3. make the connection secure (https)
