[jira] [Created] (SPARK-3883) Provide SSL support for Akka and HttpServer based connections

Jacek Lewandowski created SPARK-3883:
----------------------------------------

             Summary: Provide SSL support for Akka and HttpServer based connections
                 Key: SPARK-3883
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-3883
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Story
          Components: Spark Core
            Reporter: Jacek Lewandowski


Spark uses at least 4 logical communication channels:
1. Control messages - Akka based
2. JARs and other files - Jetty based (HttpServer)
3. Computation results - Java NIO based
4. Web UI - Jetty based

The aim of this feature is to enable SSL for (1) and (2).

Why:
Spark configuration is sent through (1). Spark configuration may contain sensitive information like credentials for accessing external data sources or streams. Application JAR files (2) may include the application logic and therefore they may include information about the structure of the external data sources, and credentials as well.
