             Summary: Compress files in transit for fs -get and -put operations
                 Key: HDFS-6323
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6323
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: hdfs-client
            Reporter: Tom Panning
            Priority: Minor


For the {{hadoop fs -get}} and {{hadoop fs -put}} commands, it would be nice if 
there was an option to compress the file(s) in transit. For some people, the 
Hadoop cluster is far away (in terms of the network) or must be accessed 
through a VPN, and many files that are put on or retrieved from the cluster are 
very large compared to the available bandwidth.
