Hudson commented on HADOOP-12853: --------------------------------- FAILURE: Integrated in Hadoop-trunk-Commit #9405 (See [https://builds.apache.org/job/Hadoop-trunk-Commit/9405/]) HADOOP-12853. Change WASB documentation regarding page blob support. (cnauroth: rev f98dff329b1f94c9f53022baf0209fc1a7aaf7c2) * hadoop-common-project/hadoop-common/CHANGES.txt * hadoop-tools/hadoop-azure/src/site/markdown/index.md > Change WASB documentation regarding page blob support > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-12853 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12853 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: fs/azure > Reporter: madhumita chakraborty > Assignee: madhumita chakraborty > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 2.8.0 > > Attachments: HADOOP-12853.001.patch > > > WASB page blob support documentation in Features list at the top: > Supports both page blobs (suitable for most use cases, such as MapReduce) and > block blobs (suitable for continuous write use cases, such as an HBase > write-ahead log). > Which is actually the opposite. Block blobs are better for typical big data > use cases, and page blobs were implemented to support the HBase WAL. > It is also mentioned that > "Page blobs can be used for other purposes beyond just HBase log files > though." > This is not strong enough because page blob has been tested only in context > of HBase write ahead logs. They have not been broadly certified for use > across the Hadoop ecosystem, hence is not recommended for use as a general > purpose file-system via Hadoop cluster -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
