> This issue proposes introduction of a new feature: the DataNode Lifeline
> Protocol. This is an RPC protocol that is responsible for reporting liveness
> and basic health information about a DataNode to a NameNode. Compared to the
> existing heartbeat messages, it is lightweight and not prone to resource
> contention problems that can harm accurate tracking of DataNode liveness
> currently. The attached design document contains more details.
