Andor Molnar reassigned HBASE-26667: ------------------------------------ Assignee: Andor Molnar > Integrate user-experience for hbase-client > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: HBASE-26667 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-26667 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Josh Elser > Assignee: Andor Molnar > Priority: Major > Fix For: HBASE-26553 > > > Today, we have two mechanism in order to get the tokens needed to > authenticate: > # Kerberos, we rely on a Kerberos ticket being present in a well-known > location (defined by JVM properties) or via programmatic invocation of > UserGroupInformation > # Delegation tokens, we rely on special API to be called (our mapreduce API) > which loads the token into the current UserGroupInformation "context" (the > JAAS PrivilegedAction). > The JWT bearer token approach is very similar to the delegation token > mechanism, but HBase does not generate this JWT (as we do with delegation > tokens). How does a client provide this token to the hbase-client (i.e. > {{ConnectionFactory.getConnection()}} or a {{UserGroupInformation}} call)? We > should be mindful of all of the different "entrypoints" to HBase ({{{}hbase > ...{}}} commands, {{java -cp}} commands, Phoenix commands, Spark comands, > etc). Our solution should be effective for all of these approaches and not > require downstream changes. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.1#820001)
