Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-3246:
--------------------------------------
> At present we are faced with the issue of our data lying in different remote
> FTP server locations.
To be clear: these are existing FTP servers, not remote HDFS systems that you
wish to access over FTP? Because, if you want to transfer data from a remote
HDFS system, then the HFTP scheme permits this over HTTP or HTTPS.

> Key: HADOOP-3246
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3246
> Project: Hadoop Core
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: util
> Reporter: Ankur
> Priority: Minor
>
> An FTP client that stores content directly into HDFS allows data from FTP
> serves to be stored directly into HDFS instead of first copying the data
> locally and then uploading it into HDFS. The benefits are apparent from an
> administrative perspective as large datasets can be pulled from FTP servers
> with minimal human intervention.
