Kai Zheng updated HDFS-7337:
----------------------------
Attachment: PluggableErasureCodec.pdf
For time saving, I composed this doc to illustrate the erasure codec framework
for review. Your feedback is welcome.
> Configurable and pluggable Erasure Codec and schema

> According to HDFS-7285 and the design, this considers to support multiple
> Erasure Codecs via pluggable approach. It allows to define and configure
> multiple codec schemas with different coding algorithms and parameters. The
> resultant codec schemas can be utilized and specified via command tool for
> different file folders. While design and implement such pluggable framework,
> it’s also to implement a concrete codec by default (Reed Solomon) to prove
> the framework is useful and workable. Separate JIRA could be opened for the
> RS codec implementation.
> Note HDFS-7353 will focus on the very low level codec API and implementation
> to make concrete vendor libraries transparent to the upper layer. This JIRA
> focuses on high level stuffs that interact with configuration, schema and etc.
