Nigel Jones commented on RANGER-1488:
-------------------------------------

Just an update ... the plugin has been coded and is working. The code is currently at [https://github.com/GaianRangerPlugin/ranger-gaian-plugin] and some associated issues in the github tracker

 

It's not been pushed to ranger yet as we work through a few questions around gaian & where the source is managed, but I wanted to update people on progress. If interested do get in touch and am happy to explain/demo etc..

> GaianDB is a distributed, federated database built on Apache Derby.
> The documentation is at https://github.com/gaiandb/gaiandb/blob/master/README.md - navigate up for the source.
> As part of a Virtual Connector Project based on Atlas we are using gaianDB to provide a virtualization layer. We need to control access to underlying resources and will be building a Ranger plugin for gaiandb to support this. GaianDB already has support for a form of policy plugin which allows the SQL to be intercepted.
> It is unclear if this code will sit
>  - external to ranger/atlas ie in the gaianDB sources
>  - as a sample in the Atlas project (so that we collate what is needed for the virtual connector project)
>  - as a sample, or component in the Ranger project
> However it seems helpful to describe the proposal here and get feedback/dialogue in the ranger community :-)
