He Yongqiang commented on HIVE-78:
----------------------------------
I think this jira is just a first step towards a fulfilled security feature. It
just does the meta-store check to see if a given user be able to issue the
query or not.
There is no integration with HDFS/MR part. So the file owner and the job
executer are just the same as now.
A long term plan is to set up HiveServer.
> Authorization infrastructure for Hive
