Apache Ranger
Apache Ranger™ is a holistic framework aimed at streamlining, supervising, and regulating data security within the Hadoop ecosystem. Its primary objective is to deliver strong security protocols throughout the entirety of the Apache Hadoop environment. The emergence of Apache YARN has enabled the Hadoop framework to support a true data lake architecture, which allows businesses to run multiple workloads within a shared environment. As Hadoop's data security evolves, it is essential for it to adjust to various data access scenarios while providing a centralized platform for the management of security policies and user activity oversight. A single security administration interface allows for the execution of all security functions through one user interface or by utilizing REST APIs. Moreover, Ranger offers fine-grained authorization capabilities, empowering users to carry out specific actions within Hadoop components or tools, all governed via a centralized administrative tool. This method not only harmonizes the authorization processes across all Hadoop elements but also improves the support for diverse authorization strategies, including role-based access control. Consequently, organizations can foster a secure and efficient data landscape while accommodating a wide range of user requirements. In addition, the continuous development of security features within Ranger ensures that it remains aligned with the ever-evolving landscape of data management and protection.

Apache Knox
The Knox API Gateway operates as a reverse proxy that prioritizes pluggability in enforcing policies through various providers while also managing backend services by forwarding requests. Its policy enforcement mechanisms cover an extensive array of functionalities, such as authentication, federation, authorization, auditing, request dispatching, host mapping, and content rewriting rules. This enforcement is executed through a series of providers outlined in the topology deployment descriptor associated with each secured Apache Hadoop cluster. Furthermore, the definition of the cluster is detailed within this descriptor, allowing the Knox Gateway to comprehend the cluster's architecture for effective routing and translation between user-facing URLs and the internal operations of the cluster. Each secured Apache Hadoop cluster has its own set of REST APIs, which are recognized by a distinct application context path unique to that cluster. As a result, this framework enables the Knox Gateway to protect multiple clusters at once while offering REST API users a consolidated endpoint for access. This design not only enhances security but also improves efficiency in managing interactions with various clusters, creating a more streamlined experience for users. Additionally, the comprehensive framework ensures that developers can easily customize policy enforcement without compromising the integrity and security of the clusters.
