--------------------------
Summary: Hive Metastore Plugin
Key: RANGER-768
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-768
Project: Ranger
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: admin, plugins
Reporter: Yan
Currently there is no Ranger processing of Hive table meta store events that
could result in privilege modifications. One example is that when a table is
renamed by a Hive Server 2 client (the "beeline"), no proper privilege
adjustments in Ranger are made to allow/deny previously allowed/denied users
the same privileges as before. In addition, more advanced features, such as
granting/denying similar accesses to Hive's HDFS data to users that have (or do
not have) privileges in the Hive, would require that detailed metadata of the
Hive table, the storage info to be specific, be available to Ranger in order to
make the corresponding HDFS data accessible to the Hive users directly.
This plugin will depend upon the existing Ranger Hive plugin, so it shares the
same "service" name as the associated Ranger Hive service deployed, and it will
be "co-enabled" with the existing Ranger Hive plugin.
Design doc will come soon.
