For instance, running Hadoop1 vs Hadoop2 vs CDH means potentially different ways of getting the UserGroupInformation. > This issue abstracts out the mechanism by which we obtain an o.a.h.hbase.security.User to a UserProvider. This UserProvider can then be extented as a Hadoop 1/2 shim as well as supporting custom authentication code. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1#6144)
