Jing Zhao commented on HDFS-8345:
---------------------------------
Looks like most of the public functions in {{BlockStoragePolicy}} are
generically choosing {{StorageType}} for replicas, and replication is a general
concept and is already included in {{FileStatus}}. If you think some functions
should be internal to HDFS, maybe we can also have a new subclass/wrapper of
BlockStoragePolicy in HDFS?
> Storage policy APIs must be exposed via the FileSystem interface
