Zesheng Wu commented on HDFS-5682:
----------------------------------

Thanks [~ndimiduk], here are some details of our SLA requirements:
The background is that we have a structured data storage system which is very 
similar with amazon DynamoDB and is built on HBase. This system is intended to 
serve multi-tenants, in order to ensure the SLA, such as 99% read/write 
latency, we need to place the data on SSD. One straightforward way is to set up 
a hdfs cluster with all SSD data disks, but this is cost too much. So we need 
to reduce the cost. Another way is to set up a hdfs cluster with both SSD and 
HDD data disks, we can put 1 replica on SSD, and the other 2 on HDD. This is 
really a typical scenario of hdfs heterogeneous storage.

> Heterogeneous Storage phase 2 - APIs to expose Storage Types

> Phase 1 (HDFS-2832) added support to present the DataNode as a collection of 
> discrete storages of different types.
> This Jira is to track phase 2 of the Heterogeneous Storage work which 
> involves exposing Storage Types to applications and adding Quota Management 
> support for administrators.
> This phase will also include tools support for administrators/users.
