> In most of the Hadoop clusters, as more and more data is stored for longer
> time, the demand for storage is outstripping the compute. Hadoop needs a cost
> effective and easy to manage solution to meet this demand for storage.
> Current solution is:
> - Delete the old unused data. This comes at operational cost of identifying
> unnecessary data and deleting them manually.
> - Add more nodes to the clusters. This adds along with storage capacity
> unnecessary compute capacity to the cluster.
> Hadoop needs a solution to decouple growing storage capacity from compute
> capacity. Nodes with higher density and less expensive storage with low
> compute power are becoming available and can be used as cold storage in the
> clusters. Based on policy the data from hot storage can be moved to cold
> storage. Adding more nodes to the cold storage can grow the storage
> independent of the compute capacity in the cluster.
