Koert-
I saw a presentation at Hadoop World 2011 where some guys were co-opting
Hadoop's compression hooks to do encryption.

king the lowest number you can get away with on the list.
I'm not a hadoop expert yet, but what you found is the best approach I'm aware
of to #2.

agreed.
many forms of data require encryption to be stored on any system. i do know
now the exact motivation(s) for that, but i do know we have to conform to
this.
my assumption was that i want to protect against access to the data by
someone stealing the harddrives or the servers. so physical ac
Or just people who find your disks at the second-hand shop.

locked up? Is it somebody who has physical access to the machines? Does the
information have to be secure forever or just for a while?

Right or wrong, we pretty much follow an architectural model to encrypt data
before it gets to the storage system and decrypt it after pulling it off.
While it's some extra gear in your data center, it's given us flexibility to
use whatever storage system we wanted to use. HDFS, NAS, SAN, Lo
