Aaron T. Myers commented on THRIFT-876:
---------------------------------------

bq. I agree that we should address those requirements in a doc. Parts 1 (define 
the "service name") and 5 (define how authorization is to be interpreted) seem 
to be inapplicable to Thrift, since really the implementing service should 
define those things. But the other parts seem useful - especially part 3, which 
might not be addressed by the current patch - there should be some status codes 
preceding each part of the SASL handshake in order to pass back a useful error 
message for failure cases.

Sounds good. I'll work on a proposal for a (very tiny) "Thrift with SASL" 
protocol.

> 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.
