-------------------------------------
Summary: Support pluggable mechanism to specify Service
Authorization
Key: HADOOP-10654
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10654
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Sub-task
Components: security
Reporter: Benoy Antony
Assignee: Benoy Antony
The service authorization can be specified via hadoop-policy.xml for different
services(protocols) using ACLS ( list of users and groups) . The other subtasks
will improve the standard behavior.
In some case, further special handling is required to restrict access based on
few other external characteristics of the user for special clusters. Such
special authorization requirements can be met if it is possible to plugin
authorization mechanisms at this point.
