             Summary: Add a Client API and Proxy Provider to enable stale read 
from Standby
                 Key: HDFS-10702
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-10702
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Jiayi Zhou
            Assignee: Jiayi Zhou
            Priority: Minor


Currently, clients must always talk to the active NameNode when performing any 
metadata operation, which means active NameNode could be a bottleneck for 
scalability. One way to solve this problem is to send read-only operations to 
Standby NameNode. The disadvantage is that it might be a stale read. 

Here, I'm thinking of adding a Client API to enable/disable stale read from 
Standby which gives Client the power to set the staleness restriction.
