Sep 1, 2025Summary for 2025-09: In apache/ranger, delivered two core improvements focused on clarity and performance. 1) Schema naming consistency by renaming the resource column to resource_name across MySQL, Oracle, and PostgreSQL schemas, reducing ambiguity for analytics and integrations. 2) Policy count performance optimization via a refactor of MetricUtil and the new getPolicyCountByDenyConditionsAndServiceDef method, delivering a significant boost to policy evaluation throughput. Impact: Clearer data model, faster policy decisions, and improved maintainability across databases. The changes align with RANGER-5288 and set the foundation for scalable policy evaluations in multi-DB environments. What was delivered: Commit ec3f74b7082724bae5c5801c5a1d4fd3ca2cc7cc details the resource_name naming change and the MetricUtil performance enhancement. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Java refactor of MetricUtil, cross-DB SQL/schema updates (MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL), code quality improvements, and performance optimization." ,
