Haohui Mai created HDFS-5570:
--------------------------------
Summary: Deprecate hftp / hsftp and replace them with webhdfs /
swebhdfs
Key: HDFS-5570
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5570
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Haohui Mai
Assignee: Haohui Mai
Currently hftp / hsftp only provide a strict subset of functionality that
webhdfs / swebhdfs offer. Notably, hftp / hsftp do not support writes and HA
namenodes. Maintaining two piece of code with similar functionality introduce
unnecessary work.
Webhdfs has been around since Hadoop 1.0 therefore moving forward with webhdfs
does not seem to cause any significant migration issues.
This jira proposes to deprecate hftp / hsftp in branch-2 and remove them in
trunk.
