Hi Alejandro, I still think that we should use PUT for mkdir and create. Below
is quoted from Section 9.6 PUT in
http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec9.html
{quote}
The fundamental difference between the POST and PUT requests is reflected in
the different meaning of the Request-URI. The URI in a POST request identifies
the resource that will handle the enclosed entity. That resource might be a
data-accepting process, a gateway to some other protocol, or a separate entity
that accepts annotations. In contrast, the URI in a PUT request identifies the
entity enclosed with the request -- the user agent knows what URI is intended
and the server MUST NOT attempt to apply the request to some other resource. ...

> We'd like to contribute Hoop to Hadoop HDFS as a replacement (an improvement)
> for HDFS Proxy.
> Hoop provides access to all Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) operations
> (read and write) over HTTP/S.
> The Hoop server component is a REST HTTP gateway to HDFS supporting all file
> system operations. It can be accessed using standard HTTP tools (i.e. curl
> and wget), HTTP libraries from different programing languages (i.e. Perl,
> Java Script) as well as using the Hoop client. The Hoop server component is a
> standard Java web-application and it has been implemented using Jersey
> (JAX-RS).
> The Hoop client component is an implementation of Hadoop FileSystem client
> that allows using the familiar Hadoop filesystem API to access HDFS data
> through a Hoop server.

> Blog: http://www.cloudera.com/blog/2011/07/hoop-hadoop-hdfs-over-http/
> Hoop is a Maven based project that depends on Hadoop HDFS and Alfredo (for
> Kerberos HTTP SPNEGO authentication).
> To make the integration easy, HDFS Mavenization (HDFS-2096) would have to be
> done first, as well as the Alfredo contribution (HADOOP-7119).
