---------------------------------
Assignee: Alex Cruise
> gRPC gateway support
> --------------------
>
> Key: KNOX-3402
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KNOX-3402
> Project: Apache Knox
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Server
> Reporter: Alex Cruise
> Assignee: Alex Cruise
> Priority: Major
> Time Spent: 20m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> This started out intended only to support [Spark
> Connect|https://spark.apache.org/spark-connect/], which is a gRPC-native
> protocol for Apache Spark that allows end users to interact with Spark
> clusters and submit jobs through a principled API, from languages that aren't
> necessarily Python, Scala or SQL. Spark Connect itself explicitly disclaims
> any support for authentication or authorization; rather Spark suggests
> installing one's own gRPC gateway between client and server if such
> functionality is needed. Knox could be that gateway!
> The original intent of this project was only to support Spark Connect rather
> than arbitrary gRPC workloads, but the Spark Connect-specific parts turned
> out to be very small, and making it fully generic required very little
> additional code. Knox doesn't _exactly_ support proxying arbitrary REST
> traffic right now, but it makes it pretty easy.
