Schema Registry authorization through Ranger access policies
User and group access to various Schema Registry functions is controlled through Apache Ranger.
Pre-defined access policies for Schema Registry allow the administrator to quickly
add a user or user group to specify:
- Who can add/evolve schemas to a schema metadata.
- Who can view and edit schemas within a schema metadata.
- Who can upload the ser/des jar files.
If a higher level of granularity is necessary, the administrator can create an access policy and add the user or user-group to this custom policy.
