Hi, how to provide a simple propertyfile or database user/password authentication for HiveServer2?
Since it is a small research project, we don't have Kerberos or LDAP. I already found this [0] presentation about it, but it's not in English :(. On the Cloudera reference manual [1] I found smth. about the hive.server2.authentication property. It supports CUSTOM implementations of the interface hive.server2.custom.authentication. But I don't know whether this is the way to go. Best Regards, Christian.
