Summary: KMS on Hadoop RPC Engine Key: HADOOP-16119 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-16119 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Jonathan Eagles Per discussion on common-dev and text copied here for ease of reference. https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/0e2eeaf07b013f17fad6d362393f53d52041828feec53dcddff04808@%3Ccommon-dev.hadoop.apache.org%3E {noformat} Thanks all for the inputs, To offer additional information (while Daryn is working on his stuff), optimizing RPC encryption opens up another possibility: migrating KMS service to use Hadoop RPC. Today's KMS uses HTTPS + REST API, much like webhdfs. It has very undesirable performance (a few thousand ops per second) compared to NameNode. Unfortunately for each NameNode namespace operation you also need to access KMS too. Migrating KMS to Hadoop RPC greatly improves its performance (if implemented correctly), and RPC encryption would be a prerequisite. So please keep that in mind when discussing the Hadoop RPC encryption improvements. Cloudera is very interested to help with the Hadoop RPC encryption project because a lot of our customers are using at-rest encryption, and some of them are starting to hit KMS performance limit. This whole "migrating KMS to Hadoop RPC" was Daryn's idea. I heard this idea in the meetup and I am very thrilled to see this happening because it is a real issue bothering some of our customers, and I suspect it is the right solution to address this tech debt. {noformat} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: common-dev-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: common-dev-h...@hadoop.apache.org
