Most importantly, page-blobs can cope with an > effectively infinite number of small accesses whereas block-blobs can only > tolerate 50K appends before relatively manual rewriting of the data is > necessary. A simple analogy is that page-blobs are like a regular disk and > the basic API is like a low-level device driver. > See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/ee691964.aspx for some > introductory material. > The primary driving scenario for page-blob support is for HBase transaction > log files which require an access pattern of many small writes. Additional > scenarios can also be supported. > Configuration: > The Hadoop Filesystem abstraction needs a mechanism so that file-create can > determine whether to create a block- or page-blob. To permit scenarios where > application code doesn't know about the details of azure storage we would > like the configuration to be Aspect-style, ie configured by the Administrator > and transparent to the application. The current solution is to use hadoop > configuration to declare a list of page-blob folders -- Azure Filesystem for > Hadoop will create files in these folders using page-blob flavor. The > configuration key is "fs.azure.page.blob.dir", and description can be found > in AzureNativeFileSystemStore.java. > Code changes: > - refactor of basic Azure Filesystem code to use a general BlobWrapper and > specialized BlockBlobWrapper vs PageBlobWrapper > - introduction of PageBlob support (read, write, etc) > - miscellaneous changes such as umask handling, implementation of > createNonRecursive(), flush/hflush/hsync. > - new unit tests. > Credit for the primary patch: Dexter Bradshaw, Mostafa Elhemali, Eric Hanson, > Mike Liddell. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
