>                 Key: SUBMARINE-834
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SUBMARINE-834
>             Project: Apache Submarine
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: Security
>            Reporter: Adesh Kumar Rao
>            Priority: Major
>
> Currently, the spark-security module is tightly coupled with 
> "HiveTableRelation" and "MetastoreRelation". 
>  This does not work for Hive transactional (ACID enabled) table. Since Hive 
> has changed the way data/metadata is stored for transactional tables when 
> compared to non-transactional tables. Therefore, Spark can not read Hive 
> transactional tables directly. 
> So even if security module can enforce security on such tables, spark can't 
> actually read anything. 
>  
> Reading hive's transactional tables in spark, needs 
> [Spark-Acid|https://github.com/qubole/spark-acid], implemented as Spark 
> Datasource. Since security module is tightly coupled with "HiveTableRelation" 
> and "MetastoreRelation", it does not provides authorization support for any 
> datasource.
>  
> The idea is to support Spark datasource authorization (which has 
> db/table/column/partitions anologus, similar to hive). 
>  
> We can create generic interfaces for datasource, which each datasource can 
> implement and then it can authorized using the existing codebase.
