Components of Hadoop Distributed file System (HDFS)

2/18/2018

 

  • HDFS is a spread across multiple machines (Simple with commodity Hardware)
  • Nothing unique about individual machine but unique part is a cluster as a whole is highly fault tolerant 
  • Well Suited for large Batch Jobs
  • Not a low latency system
  • Data is HDFS is very very large (Semi-Structured)
  • Any data in HDFS in split across multiple disks where each disk in present on a diff machine in a cluster
  • File system manage machine and space
  • Setup by Master-Salve Nodes
  • Master Node (Name Node) coordinates with Slave Nodes(Data Node)
  • One Namenode/Cluster
  • For Example - Name note is like a table of content of a book and data node are the actual chapters
  • NameNode has 2 responsibilities 
    • Manage the overall file system
    • Stores (Directory Structure)
    • Other File metadata
  • DataNode
    • Physically stores the data
