Description

Part of https://github.com/stackabletech/hive-operator/issues/678

Starting with Hive 4.2.0 it can start a Iceberg REST catalog (4.1.0 one was totally broken).

In nifi-op we alread start a REST catalog in a HMS: https://github.com/stackabletech/nifi-operator/blob/4d02ceb039159bb1d71827d9ffac94d6da5424a3/tests/templates/kuttl/iceberg-rest/30_hive.yaml.j2#L31-L36.
It looks like the REST catalog is also available standalone component, we should research that. In this implementation we should try to use the standalone component and not start a thrift AND a REST catalog simultaneously to reduce complexity and potential miss-use.

It must support

  • No authentication
  • OAuth2 authentication
  • We researched if HTTPS is possible

It should

  • Use standalone mode

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing nifi-operator template at tests/templates/kuttl/iceberg-rest/30_hive.yaml.j2 and the linked hive-operator issue. Research Hive 4.2.0's standalone Iceberg REST catalog and determine how CRD configuration should support no authentication, OAuth2, and HTTPS. Done means standalone mode is supported without simultaneously starting thrift and REST components, with the listed authentication and HTTPS questions resolved.
