I think what you are thinking of is the driver that was built to actually replace hdfs with rbd. As far as I know that thing had a very short lifespan on one version of hadoop. Very sad.
As to what you proposed: 1) Don't use Cephfs in production pre-jewel. 2) running hdfs on top of ceph is a massive waste of disk and fairly pointless as you make replicas of replicas. -Erik On Apr 29, 2016 9:20 PM, "Bill Sharer" <bsha...@sharerland.com> wrote: > Actually this guy is already a fan of Hadoop.
