Hi everybody,
I'm trying to access the hdfs using web services. The idea is that the
web service client can access the HDFS using SOAP or REST and has to
support all the hdfs shell commands.

There is WebDAV support for HDFS, so you can mount the filesystem in any webdav client (including WinXP), or use a DAV client library to talk to the filesystem.

WebDAV is fairly RESTy, and it has the basic set of filesystem operations (put/get/delete/move + metadata operations)

I don't see any plans for SOAP support on the horizon.
