Review our analsys of the HDFS architecture and its refactoring opportunities
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HDFS-2353
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2353
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: documentation
    Affects Versions: 0.21.0
         Environment: N/A.
            Reporter: Florian Uunk
            Priority: Minor


We are currently capturing (reverse engineering and documenting) a 
representation of the module structure of the Hadoop Distributed File System 
(HDFS), version 0.21. We are doing this by analyzing the HDFS source code, 
specifically the dependencies in the code. By looking for modularity violations 
using this representation, we are able to suggest a number of improvements to 
the modularity of HDFS.

We would like input from you, contributers of HDFS, on the correctness of the 
refactoring possibilities that we have identified, and on the feasibility of 
actually making the proposed changes.  In return, you are getting documentation 
of the module structure of the HDFS, and a possibly useful list of changes that 
could be made to improve the maintainability of the source code.
