[jira] [Created] (HDFS-5570) Deprecate hftp / hsftp and replace them with webhdfs / swebhdfs

Haohui Mai created HDFS-5570:
--------------------------------

             Summary: Deprecate hftp / hsftp and replace them with webhdfs / swebhdfs
                 Key: HDFS-5570
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5570
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Haohui Mai
            Assignee: Haohui Mai


Currently hftp / hsftp only provide a strict subset of functionality that webhdfs / swebhdfs offer. Notably, hftp / hsftp do not support writes and HA namenodes. Maintaining two piece of code with similar functionality introduce unnecessary work.

Webhdfs has been around since Hadoop 1.0 therefore moving forward with webhdfs does not seem to cause any significant migration issues.

This jira proposes to deprecate hftp / hsftp in branch-2 and remove them in trunk.
