Cristian, Great idea! a couple of comments: - HDFS supports truncate since at least v. 2.7.0 (see HDFS-3107) - integration with HBase would increase the operational complexity, which is already high in HBase, to new levels. Besides, using HBase as the compaction mechanism shouldn't be called HDFS CacheStore - do you think this can be combined with IGFS on top of HDFS?
Thoughts?
