I will suggest that don't pipe the sensor data to the HDFS directly instead you can have some program(either java,python etc) on the server itself to process the incoming sensor data and writing it to the text/binary file(don't know the data format which you are currently receiving).now you can put your data file on the HDFS alternatively you can directly process the data and save to your HBASE managed on the HDFS.
if your sensor data is log data then you can use flume to load that data into the HDFS directly.
