[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-6147) Hadoop Filesystem Plugin for Amazon Elastic Block Storage (EBS)

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6147?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12730415#action_12730415 ] 

Sanjay Radia commented on HADOOP-6147:
--------------------------------------

>From what I understand about EBS it will not give local access to storage but was developed by Amazon to be more efficient raw storage.
Cloudera reported that the EBS plugin they have written for their customers, released in early June,  is a lot more efficient than S3.
(See http://apache.sys-con.com/node/997306)
Cloudera how about please contributing this back to the community?
If not any volunteers for writing this plugin?

> Amazon has introduced a new storage mechanism called EBS. Supposedly it is a lot more efficient than S3 for Hadoop.
> A filesystem plugin for hadoop would we be very useful for the community.
