A recent industry analyst report by GigaOm and sponsored by Immuta comparing Apache Ranger to Immuta paints an incorrect picture on the complexities of using Apache Ranger. We believe the report contains a number of errors and inconsistencies. Unfortunately, the Apache Ranger Project Management Committee (PMC) was not contacted by the analyst firm during preparation of the report.
We have attempted to contact the authors and members of the research team several times, requesting the opportunity to review the inaccuracies and have them corrected. Despite our many attempts to rectify the misinformation, no-one from the analyst firm responded. For the benefit of existing and potential users of Apache Ranger, it is important for Apache Ranger PMC to respond to this report with facts. Our complete response, along with links to the analyst report and other data, are available at https://blogs.apache.org/foundation/entry/apache-ranger-response-to-incorrect .
