New architectural documentation created
---------------------------------------
Key: HDFS-1961
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1961
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: documentation
Affects Versions: 0.21.0
Reporter: Rick Kazman
Fix For: 0.21.0
This material provides an overview of the HDFS architecture and is intended for
contributors. The goal of this document is to provide a guide to the overall
structure of the HDFS code so that contributors can more effectively understand
how changes that they are considering can be made, and the consequences of
those changes. The assumption is that the reader has a basic understanding of
HDFS, its purpose, and how it fits into the Hadoop project suite.
