Bryan Bende commented on NIFI-7949:
-----------------------------------
If we did want to do this, we can't do it until a major first digit release
since it is a breaking change. The fully qualified class name is referenced in
flow.xml.gz and we currently don't have a mechanism to track a previous class
name to know that it is really the same class.
> Rename PutHDFS to PutHCFS

>
> https://nifi.apache.org/docs/nifi-docs/components/org.apache.nifi/nifi-hadoop-nar/1.12.1/org.apache.nifi.processors.hadoop.PutHDFS/index.html
> The PutHDFS processor can actually write to any [Hadoop Compatible File
> System
> (HCFS)|https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/stable/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-common/filesystem/introduction.html],
> where HDFS is merely one of them.
> Especially with the emergence of Hadoop Ozone and others, the name of the
> processor might be a bit inaccurate and misleading.
> What do you think?
