Hi Josh, Mapreduce in secured cluster already works like this - the jobs are run using end user logins - not as some admin login. This is key security feature and ensures no rogue jobs can interfere with each other or do some linux level access.
So this feature will bring slider component security in parity with what the traditional map-reduce does. I believe this will be important feature as slider gets more adoption for running custom services ( beyond Hbase etc. which could be run as single user) Thanks, Manoj On Wed, May 4, 2016 at 7:28 AM, Josh Elser <josh.el...@gmail.com> wrote: > Manoj Samel wrote: > >> 1.
