Steve Loughran commented on HDFS-6634:
--------------------------------------
I'd argue that making the audit log generally accessible via some kafka stream
would be broadly useful, as it would support other use cases being discussed
such as "identify and delete temporary files", or, as spotify do with their
audit log -identify files that haven't been read for a while.
If custom code is needed, that's what we call "a library"
