[jira] [Created] (HADOOP-8658) Add support for configuring the encryption algorithm used for Hadoop RPC

Aaron T. Myers created HADOOP-8658:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: Add support for configuring the encryption algorithm used for Hadoop RPC
                 Key: HADOOP-8658
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8658
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: ipc, security
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha
            Reporter: Aaron T. Myers


HDFS-3637 recently introduced the ability to encrypt actual HDFS block data on the wire, including the ability to choose which encryption algorithm is used. It would be great if Hadoop RPC similarly had support for choosing the encryption algorithm.

Aron can you explain me what it actually means?Means I didnot get the meaning of "HDFS block on wire".

Hi Amol, if you haven't already, you should read through the dialogue on HDFS-3637.

What I mean by "on the wire" is as opposed to "at rest," i.e. the data is encrypted while it is being transmitted over the network between clients and DNs, but not encrypted when the data is stored on disk.

By "block data," I mean as opposed to the RPC data. When security is enabled, encrypting the RPC traffic between clients and the NN, or DNs to the NN can already be encrypted. But, until HDFS-3637 was implemented, there was no support for encrypting the actual file data being read or written by clients and DNs.

The purpose of this JIRA is to add support for configuring the encryption algorithm used for encrypting RPC traffic.
