Nigel Jones commented on RANGER-979:
------------------------------------
I'm not familiar with CDAP (just been reading). So the tagging done in cdap
would be very similar to how one tags metadata in atlas - which then via the
tag sync process can be used by ranger policies such that they can be defined
based on classifications rather than resources?
So this is presumably meaning extending the current tag sync which supports
atlas (as at
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/RANGER/Tag+Synchronizer+Installation+and+Configuration
) -- which already comes via kafka, to alternatively support tags coming from
CDAP?

> A lot of external services which are integrated to use Ranger or can be
> integrated to use ranger as authorization provider uses Kafka to publish
> their tags/metadata.
> One of such services for example is CDAP (Cask Data Application Platform)
> which emits tags to kafka.
> It will be a nice feature to support tagsync from Kafka to allow such
> external services to use the nice tag based authorization model of ranger.
