## Description:

 Sentry is a highly modular system for providing fine grained role

based authorization to both data and metadata stored on an Apache Hadoop

Cluster.


## Issues:

Waiting for Infra to give committers/PMCs website permissions

   

## Activity: 

Community is doing post graduation activities: Moved most of the infrastructure. Roster, LDAP and board documents are upto date. New PMCs are subscribing to private@. Final website/wiki edits pending.

Conferences/ BlogPosts: Community was part of the Hadoop security tutorial at Strata covering Authorization in Hadoop. We also did a blogpost on Apache post graduation summarizing the community and project developments.

Development: Following are the major buckets of work going on in the community:

Kafka integration

Improvements to HDFS Sentry sync

Hive Auth V2

Solr Integration improvements

Refactoring to make integrations easy and quick.

Quality improvements: Bug fixes, test improvements.
