Admin Web User Interface | No | Yes |
REST API Support | No | Yes |
CLI Support | Yes | No |

Tag-based policy | No | Yes |
Row Level Filtering | No | Yes |
Column Masking | No | Yes |
HDFS ACL Sync | Yes | No [Will be supported in upcoming CDP releases] |
As we can see Apache Ranger supports more features like tag-based policy, row-level filtering, column masking, audits, admin web interface, more services, or plugins in CDP stack, and that's why its the default choice for the authorization service in CDP.
