Siddharth Seth commented on MAPREDUCE-5663:
-------------------------------------------
[~tucu00], do you have reservations on this approach - where components which
need to provide Credentials implement this interface. Otherwise, I'd like to
move forward with this jira.
> Add an interface to Input/Ouput Formats to obtain delegation tokens

> Currently, delegation tokens are obtained as part of the getSplits /
> checkOutputSpecs calls to the InputFormat / OutputFormat respectively.
> This works as long as the splits are generated on a node with kerberos
> credentials. For split generation elsewhere (AM for example), an explicit
> interface is required.
