Accumulo Summit 2015: Extending Accumulo to Support ABAC using XACML [Security]Accumulo Summit
Talk Abstract
Cell based Access Control (CBAC) in Accumulo is a powerful and flexible feature, but it has drawbacks for addressing complex access control requirements. Security architects are unable to include data types, range operators, exceptions, or environment variables to policies for dynamic access control evaluations. It is possible to solve the complex AC requirements by implementing the AC mechanism on application layer, but this approach has its own drawbacks as well. Developing another layer of AC will create an overhead both for the system design and performance.
In this talk, we present our mechanism to extend Accumulo’s Security Labels to include Attributes and XACML. This allows significantly increased Access control policy expressivity, improved policy administration, and the opportunity to implement access control models such as Attribute-based (ABAC) and Risk-Adaptable Access Control (RAdAC) in Accumulo. We will also discuss combining Accumulo's and our AC approaches to increase the capabilities of Accumulo even further. Introducing different types of attributes can be used to achieve both finer-grained and coarser-grained control over data according to access control requirements. For instance environment attributes can be used to limit access of a cell to a specific location of client whereas system specific information such as namespace/table/column can be used to simplify (or complicate) the policies.

Accumulo Summit 2015: Building Aggregation Systems on Accumulo [Leveraging Ac...Accumulo Summit
Talk Abstract
Aggregation has long been a use case of Accumulo Iterators. Iterators' ability to reduce data during compaction and scanning can greatly simplify an aggregation system built on Accumulo. This talk will first review how Accumulo's Iterators/Combiners work in the context of aggregating values. I'll then step back and look at the abstraction of aggregation functions as commutative operations and the several benefits that result by making this abstraction. We will see how it becomes no harder to introduce powerful operations such as cardinality estimation and approximate top-k than it is to sum integers. I will show how to integrate these ideas into Accumulo with an example schema and Iterator. Finally, a practical aggregation use case will be discussed to highlight the concepts from the talk.

The term "Data Lake" has become almost as overused and undescriptive as "Big Data". Many believe that centralizing datasets in HDFS makes a data lake, but then they struggle to realize any tangible value. This talk will redefine the "Data Lake" by describing four specific, key characteristics that we at Koverse have learned are crucial to successful enterprise data lake deployments. These characteristics are 1) indexing and search across all data sets, 2) interactive access for all users in the enterprise, 3) multi-level access control, and 4) integration with data science tools. These characteristics define a system that lets people realize value from their data versus getting lost in the hype. The talk will go on to provide a technical description of how we have integrated several projects, namely Apache Accumulo, Hadoop, and Spark, to implement an enterprise data lake with these key features.
