Senthuran Sivananthan updated SOLR-4392:
----------------------------------------

    Attachment: SOLR-4392.patch

Initial patch that adds a jdbc data source factory.

We now just need to implement the various encryption algorithms.

I'll work on a quick DES and AES impls, next.

> Today, the connection (database or otherwise) credentials is wide open in 
> data-config.xml.  Not really an issue until someone sends out the config file 
> outside of the server.
> We should look into externalizing the database lookup or providing a way to 
> encrypt the username and password.
> The needs are:
> 1/  Some projects want to enable multi-tenancy where data for each core is 
> situated in different database servers w/ their own credentials.  We need a 
> way to expose hooks that will allow implementations to be plugged in.  It can 
> be done though the "type" attribute on the dataSource, but providing a 
> factory might work better.
> 2/  Most orgs are very protective of their credentials and weary of 
> plain-text settings.
