[jira] [Created] (IMPALA-8309) Use a more human-readable flag to switch to a different authorization provider

Fredy Wijaya created IMPALA-8309:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Use a more human-readable flag to switch to a different authorization provider
                 Key: IMPALA-8309
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-8309
             Project: IMPALA
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: Backend
            Reporter: Fredy Wijaya


We currently use authorization_factory_class flag to switch to a different authorization provider, which is useful for any third party to provide an implementation of authorization provider. Since, Sentry and Ranger are officially supported by Impala, we should have a flag, i.e. authorization_provider=[sentry|ranger] to easily switch between officially supported authorization providers.
