Feilong He updated HDFS-15714:
------------------------------
    Description: 
HDFS Provided Storage (PS) is a feature to tier HDFS over other file systems. 
In HDFS-9806, PROVIDED storage type was introduced to HDFS. Through configuring 
external storage with PROVIDED tag for DataNode, user can enable application to 
access data stored externally from HDFS side. However, there are two issues 
need to be addressed. Firstly, mounting external storage on-the-fly, namely 
dynamic mount, is lacked. It is necessary to get it supported to flexibly 
combine HDFS with an external storage at runtime. Secondly, PS write is not 
supported by current HDFS. But in real applications, it is common to transfer 
data bi-directionally for read/write between HDFS and external storage.

Through this JIRA, we are presenting our work for PS write support and dynamic 
mount support for both read &write. Please note in the community several JIRAs 
have been filed for these topics. Our work is based on these previous community 
work, with new design & implementation to support called writeBack mount and 
enable admin to add any mount on-the-fly. We appreciate those folks in the 
community for their great contribution! See their pending JIRAs: HDFS-14805 & 
HDFS-12090.
