Is it possible to access the HDFS via Java OUTSIDE the Cluster?

[Ralf Heyde]

Hello,

 

I have found a HDFSClient which shows me, how to access my HDFS from inside
the cluster (i.e. running on a Node). 

 

My Idea is, that different processes may write 64M Chunks to HDFS from
external Sources/Clients.

Is that possible? 

How that can be done? Does anybody have some Example Code?

 

Thanks,

 

Ralf
