> Accumulo requires a couple of sensitive pieces of information to be provided
> when it is starting up (including the Accumulo root user's password). Those
> are currently provided in the appConfig.json file. Hadoop common is adding a
> CredentialProvider (HADOOP-10607) that allows you to enter passwords into a
> Java KeyStore (the storage mechanism is pluggable) and to retrieve them.
> This is in branch-2 and trunk, though I'm not sure which branch-2 release it
> will make it into. I'd like to add a capability into Slider to prompt the
> user for needed passwords and store them using CredentialProvider so they can
> be retrieved by an app later.
