Github user aspen01 commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/zeppelin/pull/1600 @EronWright Thank you for your feedback. When I first developed the feature, I assumed that HDFS would not be used as default storage because remote FS failure could affect zeppelin usage. So extended VFSNotebookRepo to keep the default storage space on local FS and HDFS as backup storage for failover. This makes the implementation is simple, but it may have created complexity. I'm using this feature, but I am also considering using a third-party storage such as HBase, because the latency of HDFS affects the latency of zeppelin notebooks.
