I'm considering using HDInsight to process data that must be encrypted at rest. I'm still in the early research phase, but I assume I can add a map step that does the decryption.
Am I way off base here, or is this a viable path forward?
Also, what is the protocol that's used internally to communicate the results of previous map/reduce operations? Does this have the option of being encrypted in motion?
