The advantage of a hadoop archive files is it lets you access the
files stored in it directly. For example, if you archived three files
(a.txt, b.txt, c.txt) in an archive called foo.har. You could cat one
of the three files using the hadoop command line:
hadoop fs -cat har:///user/joey/out/foo.ha
We use hadoop/hdfs to archive data. I archive a lot of file by creating one
large tar file and then placing to hdfs. Is it better to use hadoop archive
for this or is it essentially the same thing?
