             Summary: Dataset policies
                 Key: RANGER-3923
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-3923
             Project: Ranger
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Ranger
            Reporter: Madhan Neethiraj
            Assignee: Madhan Neethiraj


Given the primary business value of Apache Ranger is to enable sharing of resources, it will help if Apache Ranger provides an abstraction that enables a set of resources/data across services, a dataset, to be the unit of sharing instead of one or more resources in each service. This has several benefits, like:
 # A single policy to manage access to data in multiple services - like HBase, Hive, Snowflake, Kafka, Google BigQuery, AWS S3, AWS Redshift, ADLS-Gen2. This enables authorization to be centered around a purpose, like:
 * Marketing Campaign 2022 dataset
 * Sales 2021 dataset
 * CA Claims 2021 dataset


 # Enables different set of users to manage sharing data into a dataset and manage access to the data in a dataset:
 * Data owners share data into a dataset, with necessary masking,  row-filters and schedules; they can update the share details, including stop sharing into a dataset.
 * Dataset admins manage who has access to the data in the dataset. This relieves data owners from having to micromanage access to the shared data, for example when a user needs access to the data in multiple services to participate in a project.


Attached document has more details on this new abstraction, including a number of questions & answers that to help understand various aspects of this feature. Please read and add your comments/suggestions.
