Just to add more info what we are using from hadoop-auth is
AuthenticationFilter and KerberosAuthenticationHandler. Apart from these
excluded all the dependencies from hadoop-auth package.

> The UI provides APIs to kill, rebalance, ... a topology. For security we
> originally took the route to optionally disable these, but ideally the UI
> server would load an IAuthorizer instance like nimbus, and check if the user
> is allowed to perform that operation before doing it on behalf of the user.
> This should be fairly straight forward but may require some glue code like is
> being used in the drpc server for its web interface.
