>
> As with the filesystem API, we need to provide a generic mechanism to support
> multiple credential storage mechanisms that are potentially from third
> parties.
> We need the ability to eliminate the storage of passwords and secrets in
> clear text within configuration files or within code.
> Toward that end, I propose an API that is configured using a list of URLs of
> CredentialProviders. The implementation will look for implementations using
> the ServiceLoader interface and thus support third party libraries.
> Two providers will be included in this patch. One using the credentials cache
> in MapReduce jobs and the other using Java KeyStores from either HDFS or
> local file system.
> A CredShell CLI will also be included in this patch which provides the
> ability to manage the credentials within the stores.
