-----------------------------------
Summary: Add support for hs2 api to use thrift over http
Key: HIVE-4752
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4752
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Components: HiveServer2
Reporter: Thejas M Nair
Assignee: Thejas M Nair
Fix For: 0.12.0
Hiveserver2 acts as service on the cluster for external applications. One way
to implement access control to services on a hadoop cluster to have a gateway
server authorizes service requests before forwarding them to the server. The
[knox project | http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/knox] has taken this approach
to simplify cluster security management.
Other services on hadoop cluster such as webhdfs and webhcat already use HTTP.
Having hiveserver2 also support thrift over http transport will enable securing
hiveserver2 as well using the same approach.
