Allen Wittenauer commented on HDFS-843: --------------------------------------- I can think of one fairly easily: loading data to a grid without requiring having the hadoop client installed. > Add HTTP POST/PUT/DELETE support for web servers in datanodes > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-843 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-843 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: name-node > Reporter: issei yoshida > Attachments: 843.patch > > > Currently, HDFS files can be read from datanodes by their web servers, but > cannot be written or deleted. This add HTTP POST/PUT/DELETE support for HDFS. > In requests, HTTP Header must contain Content-Length and Content-Type should > NOT be "application/x-www-form-urlencoded". In POST or PUT requests, target > data need to be directly stored in HTTP body. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
