IgniteSecurity vs GridSecurityProcessor

[vbm]

Hi,

We were using 2.7.6 and had implemented a custom security plugin for authorization and authentication by implementing GridSecurityProcessor. 

Now in 2.9 we see that a new interface is provided IgniteSecurity. 

May I know what is the difference between the interfaces, as both look similar and what is appropriate place to implement them. 

Also in 2.7.6 there was a class called SecurityContextHolder to  hold the context. 

Now in 2.9 we do not see that class and we see a class OperartionClassContext.

How do we use this new class when using a custom security plugin? 

Regards, 

Vishwas

Hello!

Please refer to this specific ticket:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IGNITE-9560

As well as this Javadoc of the new class:

/**
 * Ignite Security Processor.
 * <p>
 * The differences between {@code IgniteSecurity} and {@code GridSecurityProcessor} are:
 * <ul>
 * <li>{@code IgniteSecurity} allows to define a current security context by
 * {@link #withContext(SecurityContext)} or {@link #withContext(UUID)} methods.
 * <li>{@code IgniteSecurity} doesn't require to pass {@code SecurityContext} to authorize operations.
 * <li>{@code IgniteSecurity} doesn't extend {@code GridProcessor} interface
 * sequentially it doesn't have any methods of the lifecycle of {@code GridProcessor}.
 * </ul>
