HS2 doAs setting to false

2016-08-10 Thread Mohammad Islam
Hi,
I was reading HS2 integration doc and found we needed to turn off 
hive.server2.enable.doAs.

My questions are :
1. What are impact or what HS2 feature we will lose? In other words, can't we 
submit query to HS2 from another service as end user?
2. Why this restriction?

Btw this is my second question to sentry mail-list. These two questions are 
critical for me to decided about Sentry adoption at Uber. Can someone please 
help on this?

Regards,
Mohammad

Re: Sentry-HDFS sync

Hi Mohammad,

Sentry translates the permissions of hive tables/databases to underlying
file system directories in form of file system ACLS. So, even without using
HCat, you can still rely on file system permissions. Please see here for
detailed explanation on how it works:
