             Summary: Remove deprecation from PlainSaslTransportPlugin
                 Key: STORM-3617
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-3617
             Project: Apache Storm
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: storm-core
    Affects Versions: 2.1.0
            Reporter: Simon Cooper


Whenever PlainSaslTransportPlugin is used, it logs an error about it being insecure. The class itself is also marked as deprecated - which is fair, as it is doesn't provide any security at all.

However, we are running in situations where we don't _need _security, and we don't want the extra fragility introduced by adding in security. We're perfectly ok with using an insecure transport, and we're using PlainSaslTransport over the default because we don't want to configure the buffer size of the default transport.

So please could you remove the deprecation marker from PlainSaslTransport, and downgrade the ERROR message to an INFO. We don't need security in our situations, and so running a default basic transport is exactly what we want to do.
