    Description

      A big impediment towards using RATIS-271 within HBase is the lack of krb5 authentication.

      My understanding that this limitation exists in Ratis due to gRPC's lack of such authentication.

      The two obvious paths forward would be adding krb5 authn support to gRPC to pick up in Ratis as-is, or to use a different RPC system that does support it.

      Maybe there are other solutions/avenues forward. Suggestions very welcome.
