--------------------------------------------

             Summary: Support user impersonation in HAWQ
                 Key: HAWQ-1036
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HAWQ-1036
             Project: Apache HAWQ
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Alastair "Bell" Turner
            Assignee: Lei Chang


Currently HAWQ executes all queries as the user running the HAWQ process or the 
user running the PXF process, not as the user who issued the query via 
ODBC/JDBC/... This restricts the options available for integrating with 
existing security defined in HDFS, Hive, etc.

Impersonation provides an alternative Ranger integration (as discussed in 
HAWQ-256 ) for consistent security across HAWQ, HDFS, Hive...
