Todd Lipcon commented on THRIFT-876:
------------------------------------
David: I have mixed feelings about that. It seems the topic of secure
transmission has come up a lot on the lists, etc, and SASL is a very common
mechanism by which you can achieve it (eg it's used in XMPP, IMAP, and lots of
other protocols). Although I don't think it's good to just throw the "kitchen
sink" into the project itself, I think if this is something that at least a
couple people want to use, we should put it in the project.
So, poll: how many people find this useful outside Cloudera? If it's just us
we'll just put it in our own project code.

> It'd be nice if there were some way of securing Thrift communication in a
> pluggable fashion. SASL is the implementation chosen by Hadoop for this.
> Seems like a good option for Thrift, too.
> I'll start with a Java implementation, then move on to support the other
> language bindings.
