>> 1. If the way accessing IGFS is same as HDFS, how can I ensure where the data is stored , in IGFS or HDFS? (consider IGFS as HDFS cache mode) IGFS doesn't provide the way to check whether file is stored in it, in secondary file system, or in both. You can query HDFS and check whether file exists there. IGFS is a caching layer. Normally you should only need to know the mode in which partiuclar path works: PRIMARY, DUAL_SYNC, DUAL_ASYNC or PROXY. Please check documentation here: https://apacheignite.readme.io/docs/modes
>> And if I want to compare the performance of these two file system, what shall I do? I have no answer to this question, because it highly depends in what and how are you going to measure. Please provide more information on your case and I will try to give you some ideas. >> 2. I tried to set fs.defaultFS as “igfs:///”, but hadoop could not start for no namenode detected Yes, sorry, HDFS cannot start normally when fs.defaultFS in core-site.xml is set to non-HDFS file system. In this case just set fs.defaultFS back to default and access file system using fully qualified paths. E.g., instead of "/path/to/my/file" try using "igfs:///path/to/my/file".
