This document describes how to install, configure, and integrate Cloudera Hortonworks Data Platform (HDP) with the CipherTrust Manager.
Hortonworks Data Platform is an open source application for sharing large multi-domain data sets to be stored and processed.
HDP upgrades your IT infrastructure and keeps your data secure in the cloud or on-site, thus enabling you to drive new revenue streams, improve customer experience, and control costs.
CipherTrust Manager is deployed to provide a security framework to the data in use, data at rest, and the data in transit.
