Inigo Goiri commented on HDFS-10467:
------------------------------------

This approach should support the scenarios in the mail thread. Right now we 
support the most typical operations of the RPC interface and the basic ones for 
REST. We don't do proxying of the requests to the DNs as HttpFs does but at 
some point we might; for now we just point HttpFs to our Routers. Instead of 
extending HttpFs we went into mimicing the NN to provide the full interface 
(i.e., RPC) and mimic the image of a big large NN.

The main difference with the approach proposed in the mail thread is the 
addition of the State Store as a centralized storage for the federation state. 
This mimics the architecture from YARN federation in YARN-2915.

If the document is not enough, I can provide a patch with the full approach 
(including Router, State Store and a simple cluster rebalancer). I think later 
on, we should split it into multiple subtasks.
