Access control for data is much more complicated now that folks are not just using Hadoop with the HDFS API. Though the Hadoop community has made some very specific decisions on how they will facilitate data access via the HDFS API. Mike will explore and apply the broader Apache communities approach of the HDFS API access control lists. We will apply and then compare this to several use cases for compliance and broader security. He will cover the broader Apache community and why it has chosen to depart from other Apache projects like Sentry and Ranger. He will also cover examples of where these other tools are not sufficient. Attendees, should plan on leaving with some practical hands on steps to take in their own environments to provide better more secure data access.
