Support Video: How to mask Hive columns using Atlas tags and Ranger?

[#1]

Masking of Hive columns could be achieved using Hive resource-based policies and masking policies for databases, tables, and columns. However, dynamic masking could be achieved using Atlas tags or collections (from HDP-3.x), which empowers users to regulate the visibility of sensitive data by leveraging Atlas tag-based policies in Ranger.

Prerequisites of this tutorial include a healthy HDP cluster with existing tables/databases in Hive, Atlas configuration with Hive and Ranger, and Audit to Solr enabled for Ranger.
