             Summary: Optimize HBase RPC Encryption Performance
                 Key: HBASE-16633
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-16633
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: security
            Reporter: Robert Yokota


Similar to HADOOP-10768, when HBase RPC encryption is enabled by setting 
{{hbase.rpc.protection}} to {{privacy}}, it does not use AES-NI acceleration by 
default.

We have implemented a workaround for HBase to use accelerated encryption that 
can be shown to improve performance, see 
https://rayokota.wordpress.com/2016/09/13/adventures-in-hardening-hbase/.   I 
will attach a patch of the changes for our workaround, which borrows heavily 
from the patch for HADOOP-10768, but I'll leave it to the HBase security 
experts as to what is the best approach.
