-----------------------------------
Summary: Implement the ability for endpoints to skip auth
Key: KUDU-3674
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-3674
Project: Kudu
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Marton Greber
Assignee: Marton Greber
It would be helpful to allow certain endpoints to be exposed without
authentication, even when --webserver_require_spnego is enabled at the
webserver level.
A common example is Prometheus metrics and service discovery endpoints, since
Prometheus does not support SPNEGO. With this feature, we could make those
specific endpoints publicly accessible, while keeping all other endpoints
protected by SPNEGO authentication.
If desired, this could be extended to support different authentication
mechanisms per endpoint. (eg doing basic auth for prometheus if necessary:
https://prometheus.io/docs/guides/basic-auth/ )
