Description

The Knox API Gateway functions as a reverse proxy, prioritizing flexibility in policy enforcement and backend service management for the requests it handles. It encompasses various aspects of policy enforcement, including authentication, federation, authorization, auditing, dispatch, host mapping, and content rewriting rules. A chain of providers, specified in the topology deployment descriptor associated with each Apache Hadoop cluster secured by Knox, facilitates this policy enforcement. Additionally, the cluster definition within the descriptor helps the Knox Gateway understand the structure of the cluster, enabling effective routing and translation from user-facing URLs to the internal workings of the cluster. Each secured Apache Hadoop cluster is equipped with its own REST APIs, consolidated under a unique application context path. Consequently, the Knox Gateway can safeguard numerous clusters while offering REST API consumers a unified endpoint for seamless access. This design enhances both security and usability by simplifying interactions with multiple backend services.

Description

Apache Sentry™ serves as a robust system for implementing detailed role-based authorization for both data and metadata within a Hadoop cluster environment. Achieving Top-Level Apache project status after graduating from the Incubator in March 2016, Apache Sentry is recognized for its effectiveness in managing granular authorization. It empowers users and applications to have precise control over access privileges to data stored in Hadoop, ensuring that only authenticated entities can interact with sensitive information. Compatibility extends to a range of frameworks, including Apache Hive, Hive Metastore/HCatalog, Apache Solr, Impala, and HDFS, though its primary focus is on Hive table data. Designed as a flexible and pluggable authorization engine, Sentry allows for the creation of tailored authorization rules that assess and validate access requests for various Hadoop resources. Its modular architecture increases its adaptability, making it capable of supporting a diverse array of data models within the Hadoop ecosystem. This flexibility positions Sentry as a vital tool for organizations aiming to manage their data security effectively.
