> -> The FanOutOneBlockAsyncDFSOutput is a much sophisticated dfs client model that works with Netty ByteBuf. Here we hold on connection to the datanodes using
> Netty Channels. And the idea is to write data direclty to these channels.
> AsyncHLog gets an append call. The AysncWAL uses the HBase's ByteArrayOutputSTream and so the content of the cell is written to this BAOS and that is again
> copied to the netty Bytebuf in the FanOutOneBlockAsyncDFSOutput.
> So when the sync call happens this FanoutDFSoutput does the checksum calcualtion itself and then writes the content of this buffer direclty to the DN channel.
> -> In case of FSHLOg this is different. When an append call comes we direclty write the content to the FSDataOutputStream (it is copied to this stream).
> Then here internally there is a checkSum calculation that happens. when a sync call happens there is noth ing to do except to notify the NN to flush the latest
> data.
> AS we can see from the above that there are two copies in AsyncWAL
> -> From the Cell to the BAOS 
> -> From the BAOS to the Netty byte buf
> -> On sync() call, do check sum and finally flush the netty byte buf to the DN channel
> In case of FSHLog
> -> From cell to the FSDataoutputstream. data is copied. Check sum happens here.
> -> Sync call just tries to notify the NN.
