----------------------------
Summary: Add per-KeyValue Security, get federal funding for HBase?
Key: HBASE-6222
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-6222
Project: HBase
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: security
Reporter: stack
Saw an interesting article:
http://www.fiercegovernmentit.com/story/sasc-accumulo-language-pro-open-source-say-proponents/2012-06-14
"The Senate Armed Services Committee version of the fiscal 2013 national
defense authorization act (S. 3254) would require DoD agencies to foreswear the
Accumulo NoSQL database after Sept. 30, 2013, unless the DoD CIO certifies that
there exists either no viable commercial open source database with security
features comparable to [Accumulo] (such as the HBase or Cassandra databases)..."
Not sure what a 'commercial open source database' is, and I'm not sure whats
going on in the article, but tra-la-la'ing, if we had per-KeyValue 'security'
like Accumulo's, we might put ourselves in the running for federal
contributions?
