             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.
