Hi Chris Miller,
- If one user is running a job with an interpreter, can another user simultaneously run a job (such as, in another notebook) with the same interpreter? Short answer is yes, but it depends. Long answer is, first, it depends on which scheduler interpreter implementation uses among FIFO and Parallel. Interpreter uses Parallel scheduler (e.g. spark sql interpreter, shell interpreter, etc) will able to run simultaneously. Interpreter uses FIFO scheduler will not (e.g. spark interpreter, etc) Recently, http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZEPPELIN-513 is resolved. Which allows Interpreter use FIFO scheduler run simultaneously, by creating interpreter instance per notebook. - Does Zeppelin have any kind of user authentication capabilities? Master branch has authentication capabilities based on Apache Shiro. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZEPPELIN-548 - Can I give users either read-only or no access to particular notebooks but also let users create their own notebooks that only they can see? Recently https://github.com/apache/incubator-zeppelin/pull/681 has been merged to master branch. It lets users adjust read/write/execute permission for each notebook. - Can I have jobs run as the logged-in user rather than a generic "zeppelin" user so things like HDFS permissions will apply? User impersonation is on the roadmap https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/ZEPPELIN/Zeppelin+Roadmap, but not working in progress, yet. Hope this helps.
