Also how about officially supporting minio? I know that support for s3 exists but it will be good to officially support minio as well as the deep storage.

Hadoop 3 introduced shaded client jars, https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fissues.apache.org%2Fjira%2Fbrowse%2FHADOOP-11804&data=04%7C01%7Crmordani%40vmware.com%7Cfd9387a4854f48588f4408d92a549684%7Cb39138ca3cee4b4aa4d6cd83d9dd62f0%7C0%7C1%7C637587365059243826%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=ZH1VZGMf5a%2F7VT2R06kTBUUcJWNqENM%2Bnk%2Ba8OvAYJc%3D&reserved=0, with the purpose to allow applications to talk to the Hadoop cluster without drowning in its transitive dependencies. The experimental branch that I have been helping with, which is using these new shaded client jars, can be seen in this PR https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fapache%2Fdruid%2Fpull%2F11314&data=04%7C01%7Crmordani%40vmware.com%7Cfd9387a4854f48588f4408d92a549684%7Cb39138ca3cee4b4aa4d6cd83d9dd62f0%7C0%7C1%7C637587365059243826%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=R5KYZcePTmLucDf3WIDZ%2FUsxjVeh%2Bs9TkCjoXV3vMHo%3D&reserved=0, and is currently working with the HDFS integration tests as well as the Hadoop tutorial flow in the Druid docs (which is pretty much equivalent to the HDFS integration test). The cloud deep storages still need some further testing and some minor cleanup still needs done for the docs and such. Additionally we still need to figure out how to handle the Kerberos extension, because it extends some Hadoop classes so isn't able to use the shaded client jars in a straight-forward manner, and so still has heavy dependencies and hasn't been tested. However, the experiment has started to pan out enough to where I think it is worth starting this discussion, because it does have some implications. Making this change I think will allow us to update our dependencies with a lot more freedom (I'm looking at you, Guava), but the catch is that once we make this change and start updating these dependencies, it will become hard, nearing impossible to support Hadoop 2.x, since as far as I know there isn't an equivalent set of shaded client jars. I am also not certain how far back the Hadoop job classpath isolation stuff goes (mapreduce.job.classloader = true) which I think is required to be set on Druid tasks for this shaded stuff to work alongside updated Druid dependencies. Is anyone opposed to or worried about dropping Hadoop 2.x support after the Druid 0.22 release?
