Steve Loughran commented on BAHIR-67:
-------------------------------------
This is what confuses me: all you should need to do for webhdfs access is use
the right path, one that begins {{webhdfs://}}; the implementation is in the
hadoop-hdfs/hadoop-hdfs-client JAR and it shoud just work, What would be useful
is integration tests; a MiniHDFSCluster can be brought up with webhdfs enabled
for that testing
> WebHDFS Data Source for Spark SQL

> Ability to read/write data in Spark from/to HDFS of a remote Hadoop Cluster
> In today's world of Analytics many use cases need capability to access data
> from multiple remote data sources in Spark. Though Spark has great
> integration with local Hadoop cluster it lacks heavily on capability for
> connecting to a remote Hadoop cluster. However, in reality not all data of
> enterprises in Hadoop and running Spark Cluster locally with Hadoop Cluster
> is not always a solution.
> In this improvement we propose to create a connector for accessing data (read
> and write) from/to HDFS of a remote Hadoop cluster from Spark using webhdfs
> api.
