This document provides an overview of the Apache Eagle project, which is an open source platform for monitoring Hadoop ecosystems in real time. It summarizes Eagle's key capabilities as follows:
1. Eagle uses a complex event processing (CEP) engine to evaluate monitoring policies on streamed data and detect access to sensitive data or malicious activities in real time.
2. It integrates with components like Ranger, Sentry, Knox and Splunk to provide a comprehensive solution for securing sensitive data stored in Hadoop.
3. Future releases of Eagle aim to improve the user experience, make the alert engine more scalable and extensible, and allow declarative configuration of data sources and correlation of events from multiple sources.
