-----------------------------------
Summary: Remove deprecation from PlainSaslTransportPlugin
Key: STORM-3617
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-3617
Project: Apache Storm
Issue Type: Wish
Components: storm-core
Affects Versions: 2.1.0
Reporter: Simon Cooper
Whenever PlainSaslTransportPlugin is used, it logs an error about it being
insecure. The class itself is also marked as deprecated - which is fair, as it
is doesn't provide any security at all.
However, we are running in situations where we don't _need _security, and we
don't want the extra fragility introduced by adding in security. We're
perfectly ok with using an insecure transport, and we're using
PlainSaslTransport over the default because we don't want to configure the
buffer size of the default transport.
So please could you remove the deprecation marker from PlainSaslTransport, and
downgrade the ERROR message to an INFO. We don't need security in our
situations, and so running a default basic transport is exactly what we want to
do.
