Todd Lipcon commented on ACCUMULO-118:
--------------------------------------
In HDFS 0.23 we have federation, which is (a) server side support so that a pool of DNs can
have blocks that span multiple NNs/namespaces, and (b) client side mount table support "viewfs".
So, you could have 10,000 DNs, a few NNs, and a client side mount table that divides up the
namespace across those NNs.
> accumulo could work across HDFS instances, which would help it to scale past a single
namenode

> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Improvement

> Affects Versions: 1.5.0
> Reporter: Eric Newton

> Original Estimate: 2,016h

> Consider using full path names to files, which would allow the servers to access the
files on any HDFS file system.
> Work may exist elsewhere to run HDFS using a number of NameNode instances to break up
the namespace.
> We may need a pluggable strategy to determine namespace for new files.
