Custom Knox Topologies

Custom descriptors can now be deployed to Apache Knox using Cloudera Manager. These descriptors, combined with referenced provider configurations, are transformed into Knox topologies. Using Cloudera Manager means that these descriptors only ever need to be changed in one place to affect all Knox Gateway instances in the cluster. See Add a custom descriptor to Apache Knox.

Improved custom descriptor and shared provider configuration management in Knox

The users can now remove previously created custom descriptors, including their associated topologies, and shared provider configurations when they are no longer needed.

For more information, see Remove a custom descriptor from Apache Knox and Remove a shared provider configuration.
