Todd Lipcon commented on HDFS-2316: ----------------------------------- Maybe I'm not following completely: is the idea that webhdfs would run on the same port as the NN web UI? It seems crazy to me that http://nn:50030/jmx would be the JMX servlet but http://nn:50030/jmx?opGet=read would be a file at path /jmx... hopefully I'm misunderstanding :) > webhdfs: a complete FileSystem implementation for accessing HDFS over HTTP > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-2316 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2316 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE > Assignee: Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE > > We current have hftp for accessing HDFS over HTTP.
