The major goal for this entry as described in project Rhino was= =20 =20 =E2=80=9CCore, HDFS, ZooKeeper, and HBase currently support Kerberos authen= tication at the RPC layer, via SASL. However this does not provide valuable= attributes such as group membership, classification level, organizational = identity, or support for user defined attributes. Hadoop components must in= terrogate external resources for discovering these attributes and at scale = this is problematic. There is also no consistent delegation model. HDFS has= a simple delegation capability, and only Oozie can take limited advantage = of it. We will implement a common token based authentication framework to d= ecouple internal user and service authentication from external mechanisms u= sed to support it (like Kerberos)=E2=80=9D =20 We=E2=80=99d like to start our work from Hadoop-Common and try to provide c= ommon facilities by extending existing authentication framework which suppo= rt: 1.=09Pluggable token provider interface=20 2.=09Pluggable token verification protocol and interface 3.=09Security mechanism to distribute secrets in cluster nodes 4.=09Delegation model of user authentication -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
