-------------------------------------

I will be building a plugin for gaianDB and need to evaluate if any changes are needed in ranger to support for a new plugin.

> Currently in Hive its possible to create tag based policies. For example a policy can prevent a user from accessing data in a column tagged as sensitive - with that classification likely coming from Apache Atlas.
> In order to support the principle of applying a policy to a classification rather than an actual resort, we should extend Ranger & in particular the plugins such as hive to allow tag based policies to support
>  - data masking
>  - row filtering
> I believe this is important to support the principle of Apache Atlas being used to centrally manage metadata & the classification of resources
