[jira] [Commented] (HADOOP-10611) KeyVersion name should not be assumed to be the 'key name @ the version number"

["Owen O'Malley (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10611?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14005209#comment-14005209 ] 

Owen O'Malley commented on HADOOP-10611:
----------------------------------------

I disagree on this one. There is a lot of value in having semantics behind the key version. For example, the MapReduce task ids used to be randomly generated. That was easy, but it was a pain in the tail to figure out which tasks were related to which job.

> The KeyProvider public API should treat keyversion name as an opaque value. Same for the KMS client/server.
> Methods like {{KeyProvider#buildVersionName()}} and {KeyProvider#getBaseName()}} should not be part of the {{KeyProvider}}
