Todd Lipcon resolved HDFS-238. ------------------------------ Resolution: Won't Fix Marking wontfix, seems like protobuf-based IPC and/or HTTPFS is probably the better way forward here. > imeplement DFSClient on top of thriftfs - this may require DFSClient or DN > protocol changes > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-238 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-238 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Pete Wyckoff > Priority: Minor > > Open up DFS Protocol to allow non-Hadoop DFS clients to implement > reads/writes. Obviously, the NN need not be changed because the thriftfs > server will serve up the same metadata - ie it's a bridge to the NN. > This is useful because if we can do this in Java using more open APIs, we > could do it in C++ or Python or Perl :) > Doing it in Java first makes sense because we already have the DFSClient - > kind of a proof of concept. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
