Ted Malaska commented on FLUME-2298:
------------------------------------
A HDFS channel would be something totally different. I asked the committer
once and they found it odd that we would build a channel to HDFS when HDSF is
the end goal of ingestion.
I will post a early version of the design of distributed channel shortly.
There will be type-os.

> This channel will allow for events to be persisted with a plugable method on
> more then one agent or node.
> The goal is to gain the following benefits:
> 1. Events will continue to flow to sinks with out loss or with out large
> delay even in the case of node failure.
> 2. Protect against loss in the case of a complete single node failure
