> (from HDFS-6134 proposal)
> Hadoop KMS is the gateway, for Hadoop and Hadoop clients, to the underlying KMS. It provides an interface that works with existing Hadoop security components (authenticatication, confidentiality).
> Hadoop KMS will be implemented leveraging the work being done in HADOOP-10141 and HADOOP-10177.
> Hadoop KMS will provide an additional implementation of the Hadoop KeyProvider class. This implementation will be a client-server implementation.
> The client-server protocol will be secure:
> * Kerberos HTTP SPNEGO (authentication)
> * HTTPS for transport (confidentiality and integrity)
> * Hadoop ACLs (authorization)
> The Hadoop KMS implementation will not provide additional ACL to access encrypted files. For sophisticated access control requirements, HDFS ACLs (HDFS-4685) should be used.
> Basic key administration will be supported by the Hadoop KMS via the, already available, Hadoop KeyShell command line tool
> There are minor changes that must be done in Hadoop KeyProvider functionality:
> The KeyProvider contract, and the existing implementations, must be thread-safe
> KeyProvider API should have an API to generate the key material internally
> JavaKeyStoreProvider should use, if present, a password provided via configuration
> KeyProvider Option and Metadata should include a label (for easier cross-referencing)
> To avoid overloading the underlying KeyProvider implementation, the Hadoop KMS will cache keys using a TTL policy.
> Scalability and High Availability of the Hadoop KMS can achieved by running multiple instances behind a VIP/Load-Balancer. For High Availability, the underlying KeyProvider implementation used by the Hadoop KMS must be High Available.
