hadoop as a data-archival solution

avijeetd — Wed, 28 Dec 2016 22:30:41 GMT

Hi All,

hadoop is seen as a great data-archival solution, however for a finance sector compliance perspective, can anyone please suggest if 'SEC Rule 17a-4' security compliance can be met with hadoop?

thanks,

Avijeet

I checked the document

Eliminates the root account and replaces it with a compliance administrator account that executes commands with sudo

This requirement doesn't seem to be supported by Ranger - hdfs can access folders protected by Ranger
