> As Oozie is the workflow engine on the gateway, it has to be integrated with all other grid systems in order to run jobs and compliant with their authentication policy. Oozie should authenticate those users and propagate credentials (i.e delegation tokens) to the tasks through job conf by that they can be used by the tasks to authenticate themselves against those systems while running.
> We need one unified interface for user by which they can specify what all the systems they want to use and authenticate against and should be able to provide configuration for authentication.
