Description
Support a simple access control mechanism via HTTP basic authentication. Allow definition of authorized users and assignment of ACLs to those users backed by an HBase table. A first cut might just be to control table accesses – a user will either be allowed any access to a table or nothing. Subsequently, supporting the granting or revocation of various combinations of create, update, read, and delete privileges on tables or column families can be considered.
