Jungtaek Lim commented on STORM-837:
------------------------------------

Is it accomplished with implementing IBackingMap<T>, as storm-redis did?
Seems like we can't make multiGet() with HDFS itself, but we can make it with 
Zookeeper from Hadoop Cluster.

> HdfsState ignores commits

> HdfsState works with trident which is supposed to provide exactly once 
> processing.  It does this two ways, first by informing the state about 
> commits so it can be sure the data is written out, and second by having a 
> commit id, so that double commits can be handled.
> HdfsState ignores the beginCommit and commit calls, and with that ignores the 
> ids.  This means that if you use HdfsState and your worker crashes you may 
> both lose data and get some data twice.
> At a minimum the flush and file rotation should be tied to the commit in some 
> way.  The commit ID should at a minimum be written out with the data so 
> someone reading the data can have a hope of deduping it themselves.
> Also with the rotationActions it is possible for a file that was partially 
> written is leaked, and never moved to the final location, because it is not 
> rotated.  I personally think the actions are too generic for this case and 
> need to be deprecated.
