Andrew Purtell commented on PHOENIX-672: ---------------------------------------- bq. The HBase API in 1.3 doesn't provide the ability to merge permissions, for example if the initial permission was 'RW' and the user grants 'X' then it overrides the original permission to 'X'. It's also fine to document this behavior. This consideration is orthogonal to syntax. Someone is going to either have to specify a weird (for SQL) string containing "RWX", not just "X", or GRANT READ,WRITE,EXECUTE not just GRANT EXECUTE. > Add GRANT and REVOKE commands using HBase AccessController > ---------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PHOENIX-672 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-672 > Project: Phoenix > Issue Type: Task > Reporter: James Taylor > Assignee: Karan Mehta > Labels: gsoc2016, security > > In HBase 0.98, cell-level security will be available. Take a look at > [this](https://communities.intel.com/community/datastack/blog/2013/10/29/hbase-cell-security) > excellent blog post by @apurtell. Once Phoenix works on 0.96, we should add > support for security to our SQL grammar. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
