Hi Nick, Certainly you could directly use "namenode:port" as the schema of you HDFS path. Then the hadoop configs(e.g. core-site.xml, hdfs-site.xml) will not be necessary. However, that also means you could benefit from the HDFS high-availability[1].
If your HDFS cluster is HA configured, i strongly suggest you to set the "HADOOP_CONF_DIR" for your Flink application. Both the client and cluster(JM/TM) side need to be set. Then your HDFS path could be specified like this "hdfs://myhdfs/flink/test". Given that "myhdfs" is the name service configured in hdfs-site.xml.
