Fengnan Li commented on HDFS-14118:
-----------------------------------

[~csun] Thanks for the review
for 1, the current resolving logic is put into the helper that is called inside 
the getProxyAddress, so if ObserverReadProxyProvider(or other proxy provider) 
wants to inherit this function, it can take the resolving logic automatically. 
I did the current way to avoid code duplicate. 
for 2, this is a good idea. I can drop the factory this way and loads the class 
from conf.

> Clients will need to know about routers to talk to the HDFS cluster 
> (obviously), and having routers updating (adding/removing) will have to make 
> every client change, which is a painful process.
> DNS can be used here to resolve the single domain name clients knows to a 
> list of routers in the current config. However, DNS won't be able to consider 
> only resolving to the working router based on certain health thresholds.
> There are some ways about how this can be solved. One way is to have a 
> separate script to regularly check the status of the router and update the 
> DNS records if a router fails the health thresholds. In this way, security 
> might be carefully considered for this way. Another way is to have the client 
> do the normal connecting/failover after they get the list of routers, which 
> requires the change of current failover proxy provider.
