Review our analsys of the HDFS architecture and its refactoring opportunities
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HDFS-2353
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2353
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Task
Components: documentation
Affects Versions: 0.21.0
Environment: N/A.
Reporter: Florian Uunk
Priority: Minor
We are currently capturing (reverse engineering and documenting) a
representation of the module structure of the Hadoop Distributed File System
(HDFS), version 0.21. We are doing this by analyzing the HDFS source code,
specifically the dependencies in the code. By looking for modularity violations
using this representation, we are able to suggest a number of improvements to
the modularity of HDFS.
We would like input from you, contributers of HDFS, on the correctness of the
refactoring possibilities that we have identified, and on the feasibility of
actually making the proposed changes. In return, you are getting documentation
of the module structure of the HDFS, and a possibly useful list of changes that
could be made to improve the maintainability of the source code.
