Hi Massayuki,

Ignite itself does not have a concept of a NameNode. It goes directly to
the cluster node responsible for storing the data based on a key's hashcode.

The only time when a NameNode would come into a play, is when Hadoop HDFS
is configured as an underlying write-through file system. Basically it
means that every time a data is changed in Ignite, it will also be changed
in the underlying HDFS, either synchronously or asynchronously, based on
the IGFS configuration. In this case, HDFS would contact the NameNode
whenever the data is written into it, based on the its own native protocol,
which has nothing to do with Ignite itself.

Let me know if you have more questions.
