-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi Guys,
As original person to raise this and an end user of both systems.
We use AD/LDAP for central user creation and use role groups in AD for user
security.
Atm meant we have to manually create / sync up users with the DB (HAWQ), we end
up having to rely on third party scripts :( urghhhh.
The intent was that actually we could do away with bits like:
https://github.com/larskanis/pg-ldap-sync
We use Ranger for a central way to auth and apply policies to all components in
Hadoop and use Kerberos to auth the user.
The idea or intent in the original ticket was for the user creation and ability
to secure/control tables, schema, dbs via group policies via Ranger very much
like the way it works with Hive.
The discussion seems to be going very much away from this, as such would end up
not making this feature useful for us.
