HDFS encryption

HDFS implements transparent, end-to-end encryption. After configuring HDFS, data read from and written to special HDFS directories is transparently encrypted and decrypted without requiring changes to the user application code. This encryption is also end-to-end, which means that the data can only be encrypted and decrypted by the client.

For more information, see HDFS encryption.

This section describes how to enable HDFS encryption for CDP Private Cloud Base clusters integrated with IBM Storage Scale.
