------------------------------------

[~Tagar], is this issue going on?

> HDFS group quota

>                 Key: HDFS-13096
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-13096
>             Project: Hadoop HDFS
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: datanode, fs, hdfs, nn
>    Affects Versions: 2.8.3, 2.7.5, 3.0.0
>            Reporter: Ruslan Dautkhanov
>            Priority: Major
>
> We have groups of people that have their own set of HDFS directories. 
> For example, they have HDFS staging place for new files:
> /datascience
> /analysts 
> ... 
> but at the same time they have Hive warehouse directory 
> /hivewarehouse/datascience
> /hivewarehouse/analysts 
> ... 
> on top of that they also have some files stored under /user/${username}/ 
> It's always been a challenge to maintain a combined quota on all HDFS 
> locations a particular group of people owns. As we're currently forced to put 
> a particular quota for each directory independently.
> It would be great if HDFS would have a quota tied either
> - to a set of HDFS locations ;
> - or to a group of people (where `group`is defined as which HDFS group a 
> particular file/directory belongs to).
> Linux allows to define quotas at group level, i.e. `edquota -g devel` etc.. 
> would be great to have the same at HDFS level.
> Other thoughts and ideas?
