Abstract
A system and a method for secure operator onboarding and creating an ingest job agent for secure multitenant operations of a distributed computing cluster are provided. Embodiments automate multitenant operations for distributed computing clusters. These operations include automation of operator onboarding, creation of logically segregated distributed data stores within the distributed computing clusters for the on-boarded operator, and creation of ingest agents with security isolation for transfer of large quantities of files into the distributed computing clusters. Embodiments provide multitenant security, in which the same Hadoop cluster serves multiple operators with each operator's data and processes in effective isolation. In this manner, multitenant security keeps each user's data storage and operations on the Hadoop cluster separated from other operators.
