-------------------------------------
Summary: Ranger policy-decision-point (PDP) service (was: Ranger
policy-decision-point (PDP) server)
> Ranger policy-decision-point (PDP) service
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: RANGER-5263
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-5263
> Project: Ranger
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Ranger
> Reporter: Madhan Neethiraj
> Priority: Major
>
> Apache Ranger enables centralized management of authorization policies for
> data in a wide variety of services, including file systems, databases, data
> streams, search indexes, schema registries, metadata services and APIs.
> Apache Ranger APIs and UI for policy management are available out-of-the-box,
> enabling enterprises to use a common policy model to setup authorization
> policies across their data estate.
> Apache Ranger provides Java libraries for services build to authorization
> plugins. Authorization plugins for several popular services are available
> out-of-the-box from Apache Ranger; more authorization plugin implementations
> are available from other open-source projects as well like Trino, NiFi, Kudu.
>
> To address needs of services where Java based authorization plugin is not
> feasible, Apache Ranger should provide a service having REST API endpoints
> that authorize access requests by evaluating policies setup in Apache Ranger.
> These REST APIs will enable services implemented using a wider variety of
> technologies (like Go, Python, .NET, Rust) to authorize resource accesses
> using Apache Ranger policies. In addition to extending Apache Ranger to
> larger number of services, this approach can also simplify integration with
> fewer configurations and dependencies for service implemented in Java as well.
