You can be able to use Hdfs alone in the distributed mode to fulfill your
requirement.
Hdfs has the Filesystem java api through which you can interact with the
HDFS from your client.
HDFS is good if you have less number of files with huge size rather than
you having many files with small size.

Best,
Mahesh Balija,
Calsoft Labs.
