Gabor Szadovszky commented on PARQUET-2062: ------------------------------------------- If we allow the user to set a default value we can provide similar support for non-optional columns as well. > Data masking(null) for column encryption > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: PARQUET-2062 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PARQUET-2062 > Project: Parquet > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: parquet-mr > Reporter: Xinli Shang > Assignee: Xinli Shang > Priority: Major > > When user doesn't have permisson on a column that are encrypted by the column > encryption feature (parquet-1178), returning a masked value could avoid an > exception and let the call succeed. > We would like to introduce the data masking with null values. The idea is > when the user gets key access denied and the user can accept null(via a > reading option flag), we would return null for the encrypted columns. This > solution doesn't need to save extra columns for masked value and doesn't need > to translate existing data. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
