Practical - 10 Study of HDFS. Download Practical Introduction The Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) is the primary storage system used by Hadoop applications.HDFS is a distributed file system that provides high-performance access to data across Hadoop clusters. Like other Hadoop-related technologies, HDFS has become a key tool for managing pools of big data and supporting big data analytics applications. HDFS holds very large amount of data and provides easier access. To store such huge data, the files are stored across multiple machines. These files are stored in redundant fashion to rescue the system from possible data losses in case of failure. HDFS also makes applications available to parallel processing. Features of HDFS It is suitable for the distributed storage and processing. Hadoop provides a command interface to interact with HDFS. The built-in servers of namenode and datanode help users to easily check the status of cluster. Streaming acc
