What problem are you trying to solve? Do you want encryption between server and client, between servers or encryption of data within Hbase? You need to be more specific.
If one of the first two is what you want: This kind of stuff can easily be achieved with stunnel or OpenVPN and can probably be considered a very esoteric requirement, as there are probably not many Hbase users out there, who have a cluster running across machines that are exposed to open networks. If you are looking for the latter, imo the correct way to do it would be encrypting data _before_ pushing it into the database. Java actually provides an excellent crypto framework for doing such things. 2012/9/5 Farrokh Shahriari <mohandes.zebeleh...@gmail.com> > Hello > I just wanna know why hbase doesn't provide Encryption ? > > Tnx >
