HDFS - Hadoop Distributed File System
Discover the fundamentals of Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) and its architecture. Learn how HDFS enables scalable storage, parallel data processing, and fault tolerance in big data applications. Understand the roles of master and data nodes, along with key Hadoop ecosystem modules, to grasp how data is distributed and managed efficiently across clusters.
We'll cover the following...
One of the major components of the Hadoop ecosystem is the Hadoop Distributed File System, generally known as HDFS (storage) and the other essential part is the processing or compute. The major factors that set it apart from other file systems are the scalability and distribution. Hadoop stores various duplicates of large files over various data nodes, which appears like it is in its default mode. This is an architecture that can work perfectly with two indispensable functions: ...
