HiveServer2 support supports Anonymous (no authauthentication), Kerberos, pass through LDAP and pluggable custom authentication.

...

Panel

hive.server2.authentication - – Authentication mode, default NONE. Options are NONE, KERBEROS, LDAP and CUSTOM.
hive.server2.authentication.kerberos.principal - – Kerberos principal for server.
hive.server2.authentication.kerberos.keytab - – Keytab for server principal.
hive.server2.authentication.ldap.url - – LDAP url.
hive.server2.authentication.ldap.baseDN - – LDAP base DN.
hive.server2.custom.authentication.class - – Custom authentication class that implements org.apache.hive.service.auth.PasswdAuthenticationProvider interface.

Impersonation

Panel

hive.server2.enable.doAs - – Impersonate the connected user, default true.

To prevent memory leak leaks in unsecure mode, disable file system caches , by setting the following params parameters to true:

Panel

Integrity/Confidentiality

...

Protection

Changes in HIVE-4911, which should be is available in hive Hive 0.12, enable integrity protection and confidentiality protection (beyond just the default of authentication) , for communication between hive jdbc the Hive JDBC driver and hive server2 HiveServer2. You can use the SASL QOP property to configure this.

  • This is only when kerberos Kerberos is used for the HS2 client (jdbcJDBC/odbc ODBC application) authentication with HS2HiveServer2.
  • hive.server2.thrift.sasl.qop in hive-site.xml has to be set to one of the valid QOP values ('auth', 'auth-int' or 'auth-conf').
