Hi Shrey, 1. Today Ranger Web application (AKA Policy manager) relies on host Unix system or LDAP to authenticate users that log into it. Policy Manager users can have roles or either User or Admin. A user with Admin role can create repositories. I am trying to understand your use case around using valid key-pair? Can you provide additional details? 2. Policy Manager and plugin are provided details about about the database via install.properties file during installation. I don't believe we do anything to preclude using RDBMS configured in a HA configuration. Perhaps there is a case where ranger does not play well with HA configuration of mysql. If so then can you provide those details, please.

Audience is impressed with the Administration and Audit capabilities of Ranger. I also got following points in feedback which I want to share with all: 1. While creating repositories, it would be an add-on if we could provide optional support for password file(people with a valid private/public key pair can log in). 2. Could we provisioned for High Availability of mysql or any underlying RDBMS( what if a single RDBMS instance goes down)?
