>
> The default instance of URLConnectionFactory, DEFAULT_CONNECTION_FACTORY does
> not pick up any hadoop-specific, SSL-related configuration. Its customers
> have to set up the ConnectionConfigurator explicitly in order to pick up
> these configurations. This is less than ideal for HTTPS because whenever the
> code needs to make a HTTPS connection, the code is forced to go through the
> set up.
> This jira refactors URLConnectionFactory to ease the handling of HTTPS
> connections (compared to the DEFAULT_CONNECTION_FACTORY we have right now).
> In particular, instead of loading the SSL configurator statically in
> SecurityUtil (based on a global configuration about SSL), and determine
> whether we should set up SSL for a given connection based on whether the SSL
> configurator is null, we now load the SSL configurator in
> URLConnectionFactory, and determine if we need to use the configurator to set
> up an SSL connection based on if the given URL/connection is https.
