Thejas M Nair commented on HIVE-5837:
-------------------------------------
[~brocknoland] I assume you mean URI and SERVER as objects (similar to table,
views etc) on which privileges (eg, select , insert,..) can be granted. As you
know, URI authorization is very essential (more than just helping with udf
support), without that you cannot enforce access control (you can use 'create
table' to read from any hdfs location).
I see that SERVER object will also be useful, but not essential for a first
version. Should we make one of the sql standard privileges available on SERVER
object ?

> The current default authorization is incomplete and not secure. The
> alternative of storage based authorization provides security but does not
> provide fine grained authorization.
> The proposal is to support secure fine grained authorization in hive using
> SQL standard based authorization model.
