Benoy Antony created HADOOP-10654: ------------------------------------- Summary: Support pluggable mechanism to specify Service Authorization Key: HADOOP-10654 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10654 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Sub-task Components: security Reporter: Benoy Antony Assignee: Benoy Antony
The service authorization can be specified via hadoop-policy.xml for different services(protocols) using ACLS ( list of users and groups) . The other subtasks will improve the standard behavior. In some case, further special handling is required to restrict access based on few other external characteristics of the user for special clusters. Such special authorization requirements can be met if it is possible to plugin authorization mechanisms at this point. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
