Suresh Srinivas updated HDFS-2631:
----------------------------------
Assignee: Jing Zhao (was: Jaimin D Jetly)
Summary: Rewrite fuse-dfs to use libwebhdfs (was: Rewrite fuse-dfs to use
the webhdfs protocol)
Given that libwebhdfs work from HDFS-2656 is committed, I am changing the title
of this jira.
> Rewrite fuse-dfs to use libwebhdfs
> ----------------------------------
>
> Key: HDFS-2631
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2631
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: webhdfs
> Reporter: Eli Collins
> Assignee: Jing Zhao
> Attachments: HDFS-2631.1.patch, HDFS-2631.patch
>
>
> We should port the implementation of fuse-dfs to use the webhdfs protocol.
> This has a number of benefits:
> * Compatibility - allows a single fuse client to work across server versions
> * Works with both WebHDFS and Hoop since they are protocol compatible
> * Removes the overhead related to libhdfs (forking a jvm)
> * Makes it easier to support features like security
