Todd Lipcon commented on HADOOP-5670:
-------------------------------------

Another nice thing about this is that you can use DNS for a super-simple 
HA/metaconfig system. Simply point all the hadoop nodes at 
http://confmaster/config, then set up CNAME or A records on the local domain 
network to the right machines. If one confmaster is down, it'll just pull from 
another.

> Hadoop configurations should be read from a distributed system

> Rather than distributing the hadoop configuration files to every data node, 
> compute node, etc, Hadoop should be able to read configuration information 
> (dynamically!) from LDAP, ZooKeeper, whatever.
