Robert Yokota created HBASE-16632: ------------------------------------- Summary: Optimize HBase RPC Encryption Performance Key: HBASE-16632 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-16632 Project: HBase Issue Type: Bug Components: security Reporter: Robert Yokota
Similar to HADOOP-10768, when HBase RPC encryption is enabled by setting {{hbase.rpc.protection}} to {{privacy}}, it does not use AES-NI acceleration by default. We have implemented a workaround for HBase to use accelerated encryption that can be shown to improve performance, see https://rayokota.wordpress.com/2016/09/13/adventures-in-hardening-hbase/. I will attach a patch of the changes for our workaround, which borrows heavily from the patch for HADOOP-10768, but I'll leave it to the HBase security experts as to what is the best approach. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
