Andrew Wang commented on HADOOP-12910:
--------------------------------------
We could shade Deferred so it's not an external dependency, or maybe even
copy-paste it into Hadoop. It's been pretty stable if you look at the commit
history:
https://github.com/OpenTSDB/async/commits/master/src/Deferred.java
bq. I suggest returning Future (or a sub-interface to support callbacks) in
branch 2 and CompletableFuture (or our own implementation of CompletableFuture)
in trunk. In this way, trunk is backward compatible to branch 2 since
CompletableFuture implements Future.
I like this suggestion. If there's demand for callbacks in branch-2 then we
might as well use Deferred everywhere, but if Future is sufficient for the
current set of usecases, then let's go with this plan.

> Add a new API, namely FutureFileSystem (or AsynchronousFileSystem, if it is a
> better name). All the APIs in FutureFileSystem are the same as FileSystem
> except that the return type is wrapped by Future, e.g.
> {code}
> //FileSystem
> public boolean rename(Path src, Path dst) throws IOException;
> //FutureFileSystem
> public Future<Boolean> rename(Path src, Path dst) throws IOException;
> {code}
> Note that FutureFileSystem does not extend FileSystem.
