Owen O'Malley commented on MAPREDUCE-5025: ------------------------------------------ It would still be selectable on a per MR job basis. It would be the difference between using: {code} mapred.output.dir=hdfs://nn.example.com/user/owen/output {code} and {code} mapred.output.dir=hdfs-encrypt://nn.example.com/user/owen/output {code} > Key Distribution and Management for supporting crypto codec in Map Reduce > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-5025 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-5025 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: security > Affects Versions: trunk > Reporter: Jerry Chen > Assignee: Jerry Chen > Attachments: MAPREDUCE-5025.patch > > Original Estimate: 504h > Remaining Estimate: 504h > > This task defines the work to enable Map Reduce to utilize the Crypto Codec > framework to support encryption and decryption of data during MapReduce Job. > According to the some real use case and discussions from the community, for > encryption and decryption files in Map Reduce, we have the following > requirements: > 1. Different stages (input, output, intermediate output) should have the > flexibility to choose whether encrypt or not, as well as which crypto codec > to use. > 2. Different stages may have different scheme of providing the keys. > 3. Different Files (for example, different input files) may have or use > different keys. > 4. Support a flexible way of retrieving keys for encryption or decryption. > So this task defines and provides the framework for supporting these > requirements as well as the implementations for common use and key retrieving > scenarios. > The design document of this part is included in the Hadoop Crypto Design > attached in HADOOP-9331. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
