----------------------------------

             Summary: Allow for Creating Temporary Files
                 Key: HDFS-13988
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-13988
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: hdfs, hdfs-client
    Affects Versions: 3.2.0
            Reporter: BELUGA BEHR


Allow clients to create temporary files in HDFS.

{code:java|title=FileSystem.java}
public FSDataOutputStreamBuilder createFile(Path path);
public FSDataOutputStreamBuilder appendFile(Path path);

// New feature
public FSDataOutputStreamBuilder createTempFile(Path path, TimeUnit unit, long 
ttl);
{code}

This would register the file with the NameNode to have a TTL.  The NameNode 
would be responsible for deleting the files after some custom TTL.  This would 
be helpful in the case that a MapReduce (or Spark) job fails during execution 
and does not properly clean up after itself.
