Hi Jun,
Thanks for looking into the updated KIP and clarifying our earlier queries.

>20. It's fine to keep the HDFS binding temporarily in the PR. We just need
to remove it before it's merged to trunk. As Victor mentioned, we can
provide a reference implementation based on a mocked version of remote
storage.

Sure, sounds good.

>21. I am not sure that I understood the need for RemoteLogIndexEntry and
its relationship with RemoteLogSegmentInfo. It seems
that RemoteLogIndexEntry are offset index entries pointing to record
batches inside a segment. That seems to be the same as the .index file?

That is a good point. `RemoteLogManager` does not put a restriction on
`RemoteStorageManager(RSM)` for maintaining positions in the remote
segment same as the local segments or keeping a correlation between
local segment's positions to the remote segment positions. RSM gives
back the respective entries for a given log segment, call RSM to fetch
the data by giving the respective entry. This allows RSM to have
better control in managing the given log segments.

Thanks,
Satish.
