Hafiz, I didn’t find such a guide, but used documentation from Cloudera and Hortonworks to augment what you found. KMS is part of Hadoop (in later versions), so it is just a matter of setting the configuration parameters to enable it. One thing to note is that KMS should be part of a secure cluster so you’ll need to do the necessary steps to setup Kerberos et al, which could restrict your universe of tools that you use. Also using the file based keystore is probably not a good idea if you are looking to use this in an “enterprise” environment. Being able to secure and manage a key server is not trivial.

I have read this<http://aajisaka.github.io/hadoop-project/hadoop-kms/index.html> kms documentation on hadoop but unable to get idea how to get started. Is there any detailed getting started guide for kms? does KMS is supported by default and we only need to enable it? Thanks
