Hi Thejas, I’m excited to see your interest in Sentry! Indeed we are thinking about how to take the project to next level, how to enable more use cases and integrate with additional components in Hadoop ecosystem. Some level of HDFS integration seems crutial given the way people are using Hadoop today when the same data set is being access via multiple different execution engines (Pig, MR, Hive, …). I know that several people on the project are playing with various ideas how to enable HDFS integration, but I don’t think that any real proposal has been made yet and hence there is no JIRA or wiki page talking about details.
Considering the importance of this topic I’m more then happy to facilitate a discussion to see how we can approach this integration. I think that we should formalize ideas that everyone have in mind and upload them to either wiki or perhaps just send an email to the dev list. Feel free to start if you have cool ideas on your mind as well!
