Hi Arun,

This proposal looks great. I would like to be an active contributor on this 
project. I bring with me the experience of Apache Ambari and developing the 
Ambari Metrics System.

Best Regards,
Sid

My name is already on the list of mentors. I think this project fills an 
important need. Several of the initial committers were involved with Kylin and 
therefore know the Apache process.

>>>>>
>>>>> Proposal
>>>>> Eagle audits access to HDFS files, Hive and HBase tables in real time,
>>>>> enforces policies defined on sensitive data access and alerts or blocks
>>>>> user’s access to that sensitive data in real time. Eagle also creates user
>>>>> profiles based on the typical access behaviour for HDFS and Hive and sends
>>>>> alerts when anomalous behaviour is detected. Eagle can also import
>>>>> sensitive data information classified by external classification engines 
>>>>> to
>>>>> help define its policies.
>>>>>
>>>>> Overview of Eagle
>>>>> Eagle has 3 main parts.
>>>>> 1.Data collection and storage - Eagle collects data from various hadoop
>>>>> logs in real time using Kafka/Yarn API and uses HDFS and HBase for 
>>>>> storage.
>>>>> 2.Data processing and policy engine - Eagle allows users to create
>>>>> policies based on various metadata properties on HDFS, Hive and HBase 
>>>>> data.
>>>>> 3.Eagle services - Eagle services include policy manager, query service
>>>>> and the visualization component. Eagle provides intuitive user interface 
>>>>> to
>>>>> administer Eagle and an alert dashboard to respond to real time alerts.
>>>>>
>>>>> Data Collection and Storage:
>>>>> Eagle provides programming API for extending Eagle to integrate any data
>>>>> source into Eagle policy evaluation framework. For example, Eagle hdfs
>>>>> audit monitoring collects data from Kafka which is populated from namenode
>>>>> log4j appender or from logstash agent. Eagle hive monitoring collects hive
>>>>> query logs from running job through YARN API, which is designed to be
>>>>> scalable and fault-tolerant. Eagle uses HBase as storage for storing
>>>>> metadata and metrics data, and also supports relational database through
>>>>> configuration change.
>>>>>
>>>>> Data Processing and Policy Engine:
>>>>> Processing Engine: Eagle provides stream processing API which is an
>>>>> abstraction of Apache Storm. It can also be extended to other streaming
>>>>> engines. This abstraction allows developers to assemble data
>>>>> transformation, filtering, external data join etc. without physically 
>>>>> bound
>>>>> to a specific streaming platform. Eagle streaming API allows developers to
>>>>> easily integrate business logic with Eagle policy engine and internally
>>>>> Eagle framework compiles business logic execution DAG into program
>>>>> primitives of underlying stream infrastructure e.g. Apache Storm. For
>>>>> example, Eagle HDFS monitoring transforms audit log from Namenode to 
>>>>> object
>>>>> and joins sensitivity metadata, security zone metadata which are generated
>>>>> from external programs or configured by user. Eagle hive monitoring 
>>>>> filters
>>>>> running jobs to get hive query string and parses query string into object
>>>>> and then joins sensitivity metadata.
>>>>> Alerting Framework: Eagle Alert Framework includes stream metadata API,
>>>>> scalable policy engine framework, extensible policy engine framework.
>>>>> Stream metadata API allows developers to declare event schema including
>>>>> what attributes constitute an event, what is the type for each attribute,
>>>>> and how to dynamically resolve attribute value in runtime when user
>>>>> configures policy. Scalable policy engine framework allows policies to be
>>>>> executed on different physical nodes in parallel. It is also used to 
>>>>> define
>>>>> your own policy partitioner class. Policy engine framework together with
>>>>> streaming partitioning capability provided by all streaming platforms will
>>>>> make sure policies and events can be evaluated in a fully distributed way.
>>>>> Extensible policy engine framework allows developer to plugin a new policy
>>>>> engine with a few lines of codes. WSO2 Siddhi CEP engine is the policy
>>>>> engine which Eagle supports as first-class citizen.
>>>>> Machine Learning module: Eagle provides capabilities to define user
>>>>> activity patterns or user profiles for Hadoop users based on the user
>>>>> behaviour in the platform. These user profiles are modeled using Machine
>>>>> Learning algorithms and used for detection of anomalous users activities.
>>>>> Eagle uses Eigen Value Decomposition, and Density Estimation algorithms 
>>>>> for
>>>>> generating user profile models. The model reads data from HDFS audit logs,
>>>>> preprocesses and aggregates data, and generates models using Spark
>>>>> programming APIs. Once models are generated, Eagle uses stream processing
>>>>> engine for near real-time anomaly detection to determine if any user’s
>>>>> activities are suspicious or not.
>>>>>
>>>>> Eagle Services:
>>>>> Query Service: Eagle provides SQL-like service API to support
>>>>> comprehensive computation for huge set of data on the fly, for e.g.
>>>>> comprehensive filtering, aggregation, histogram, sorting, top, 
>>>>> arithmetical
>>>>> expression, pagination etc. HBase is the data storage which Eagle supports
>>>>> as first-class citizen, relational database is supported as well. For 
>>>>> HBase
>>>>> storage, Eagle query framework compiles user provided SQL-like query into
>>>>> HBase native filter objects and execute it through HBase coprocessor on 
>>>>> the
>>>>> fly.
>>>>> Policy Manager: Eagle policy manager provides UI and Restful API for user
>>>>> to define policy with just a few clicks. It includes site management UI,
>>>>> policy editor, sensitivity metadata import, HDFS or Hive sensitive 
>>>>> resource
>>>>> browsing, alert dashboards etc.
>>>>> Background
>>>>> Data is one of the most important assets for today’s businesses, which
>>>>> makes data security one of the top priorities of today’s enterprises.
>>>>> Hadoop is widely used across different verticals as a big data repository
>>>>> to store this data in most modern enterprises.
>>>>> At eBay we use hadoop platform extensively for our data processing needs.
>>>>> Our data in Hadoop is becoming bigger and bigger as our user base is 
>>>>> seeing
>>>>> an exponential growth. Today there are variety of data sets available in
>>>>> Hadoop cluster for our users to consume. eBay has around 120 PB of data
>>>>> stored in HDFS across 6 different clusters and around 1800+ active hadoop

>>>>> to day business needs.
>>>>> We at eBay want to make sure the sensitive data and data platforms are

>>>>> to monitor sensitive data access on hadoop:
>>>>> 1.Ability to identify and stop security threats in real time
>>>>> 2.Scale for big data (Support PB scale and Billions of events)
>>>>> 3.Ability to create data access policies
>>>>> 4.Support multiple data sources like HDFS, HBase, Hive
>>>>> 5.Visualize alerts in real time
>>>>> 6.Ability to block malicious access in real time
>>>>> We did not find any data access monitoring solution that available today

>>>>> Rationale
