Hari Sekhon commented on DRILL-3584:
------------------------------------

MapR preferred not to run Kerberos on their clusters last I used them (about a 
year ago). While they have some kerberos integration they usually recommended 
their own ticketing system, MapR "native security", to secure the base 
filesystem... it's not clear how much of the Apache ecosystem actually 
integrates with this alternative mechanism though. I agree this is a 
disadvantage to the Drill project and the limited adoption will prevent the 
implicit additional QA of wider usage on the HDFS based platforms which require 
the standard Kerberos security.

> I'm trying to find Drill docs for Kerberos support for secure HDFS clusters 
> and it doesn't appear to be well tested / supported / documented yet.
> This product is Dead-on-Arrival if it doesn't integrate well with secure 
> Hadoop clusters, specifically HDFS + Kerberos (plus obviously secure 
> kerberized Hive/HCatalog etc.)
