Either way will work. With your suggestion and allowing for auth
backends to modify the authentication request:
struct AuthenticationRequest {
1: optional map<string, string> credentials,
}
service Cassandra {
...
# authentication and authorization. Returns the authentication request
(never null) with any auth tokens that may have been created by the auth
backends
AuthenticationRequest login(1: required string keyspace,
2: required AuthenticationRequest auth_request)
throws (1:AuthenticationException aux, 2:
AuthorizationException azx),
...
}
