> Some users may run a ZooKeeper cluster in "multi tenant mode" meaning that more than one client service would
> like to share a single ZooKeeper service instance (cluster). In this case the client services typically want to protect
> their data (ZK znodes) from access by other services (tenants) on the cluster. Say you are running HBase and Solr 
> and Neo4j, or multiple HBase instances, etc... having authentication/authorization on the znodes is important for both 
> security and helping to ensure that services don't interact negatively (touch each other's data).
> Today HBase does not have support for authentication or authorization. This should be added to the HBase clients
> that are accessing the ZK cluster. In general it means calling addAuthInfo once after a session is established:
> http://hadoop.apache.org/zookeeper/docs/current/api/org/apache/zookeeper/ZooKeeper.html#addAuthInfo(java.lang.String, byte[])
> with a user specific credential, often times this is a shared secret or certificate. You may be able to statically configure this
> in some cases (config string or file to read from), however in my case in particular you may need to access it programmatically,
> which adds complexity as the end user may need to load code into HBase for accessing the credential.
> Secondly you need to specify a non "world" ACL when interacting with znodes (create primarily):
> http://hadoop.apache.org/zookeeper/docs/current/api/org/apache/zookeeper/data/ACL.html
> http://hadoop.apache.org/zookeeper/docs/current/api/org/apache/zookeeper/ZooDefs.html
> Feel free to ping the ZooKeeper team if you have questions. It might also be good to discuss with some 
> potential end users - in particular regarding how the end user can specify the credential.
