| Audit Optimization | Couple of things - We would want to summarize audit at source, to handle high volume audit scenarios such as in Kafka or HBase
- Include Policy id in the audit logs
| Ranger audit would expand into newer components. With audit summarization, we would be able to manage audit volumes for large event systems like Kafka while still maintaining the traceability required by auditors and compliance teams | | Jira |

| Metadata tags and tag based policies | As complexity of data increases, it is important to classify and tag data it is coming into Hadoop. This feature provides a method to create security policies based on the metadata tags | Users can classify data as "sensitive" or "PII" and then would be able to create policies in Ranger at a tag level. Ranger can then enforce policies for any resources classified under that tag | | Jira |
