[jira] [Commented] (QUARKS-126) Adding HDFS connector

["Dale LaBossiere (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QUARKS-126?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15230133#comment-15230133 ] 

Dale LaBossiere commented on QUARKS-126:
----------------------------------------

+1, IMO the more connectors the better as it may make additional use cases possible and the presence of one doesn't bloat the deployment size of quarks applications if apps aren't using it.  That said I wouldn't expect HDFS to be present on an edge device or even accessible to most.  Maybe it would be accessible to a device on the edge of a data center?

> HDFS(Hadoop FIle System) is widely use in big data system.
> I think it might be helpful if we provide connecting method to HDFS.
> It works like File Connector but using inotify(see HDFS-6634) instead of Watch Service(in Java nio)
> I wondering it will be helpful in Quarks or not. If any commiter can review the usefulness of this function, please tell me. Then I will start to work.
