An independent HTTPS proxy for HDFS

                 Key: HADOOP-4575
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4575
             Project: Hadoop Core
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Kan Zhang
            Assignee: Kan Zhang
             Fix For: 0.20.0


Currently, an HDFS cluster itself exposes an HTTP/HTTPS interface for reading 
files (i.e., HFTP/HSFTP). However, there is a need for an HTTPS proxy server 
running independently from the cluster and serving data to users who otherwise 
can't access the cluster directly. This proxy will authenticate its users via 
SSL certificates and implements the HSFTP interface for reading files.
