Apache Ranger

Apache Ranger™ is a framework to enable, monitor and manage comprehensive data security across the Hadoop platform. Any version of Apache Ranger which is greater than 1.20 is aware of Ozone, and can manage an Ozone cluster.

To use Apache Ranger, you must have Apache Ranger installed in your Hadoop Cluster. For installation instructions of Apache Ranger, Please take a look at the Apache Ranger website.

If you have a working Apache Ranger installation that is aware of Ozone, then configuring Ozone to work with Apache Ranger is trivial. You have to enable the ACLs support and set the acl authorizer class inside Ozone to be Ranger authorizer. Please add the following properties to the ozone-site.xml.

Property Value
ozone.acl.enabled true
ozone.acl.authorizer.class org.apache.ranger.authorization.ozone.authorizer.RangerOzoneAuthorizer
