cloudera navigator multi-tenancy capability

Question

In short, can Cloudera Navigator be configured for a multi-tenancy context ? In detail, we have a datalake (Hadoop cluster) with many business entities, and we want that each business ventity view, manage and access only it own data using the cloudera navigator.

I didn't find any information on the net, and the ui seems to not provide such option.

thanks in advance

Answer 1

At the current version, Cloudera navigator is not multi-tenancy enabled.

So, at short time one of the solution is custom dev using the Cloudera navigator API coupled with other technologies.

Answer 2

You may use Cloudera Manager to create Kerberos principals and keytabs which you may configure to access required directories.
