Ranger Resource Mapping Server (RMS)

(Technical Preview – not for production use)

Ranger RMS enables automatic translation of access policies from Hive to HDFS.

Legacy CDH users used Hive policies in Apache Sentry that automatically linked Hive permissions with HDFS ACLs. This was especially convenient for external table data used by Spark or Hive. Previously, Ranger only supported managing Hive and HDFS policies separately. Ranger RMS allows Hive permissions to be considered during HDFS access evaluation. See Installing Ranger RMS (Technical Preview).
