How write operation done in HDFS?

HDFS follows Write once Read many model, so we can't edit files which are already present in HDFS.

Syntax to write data in HDFS:

hdfs dfs -put <local/file/path> <HDFS/location/where file needs to write>

exmple:

hdfs dfs -put /home/prajjwal/file1.txt /landing_location/

To write a file in HDFS, a client needs to interact with master i.e. namenode (master). Namenode provides the address of the datanodes (slaves) on which client will start writing the data. Client can directly write data on the datanodes, now datanode will create data write pipeline.

The first DataNode will copy the block to another datanode, which intern copy it to the third datanode. Once it creates the replicas of blocks, it sends back the acknowledgment.

We can understand with the help of below cartoon diagram.

Thanks All.

JPS in Hadoop

What is JPS in Hadoop? For checking running process in our Hadoop cluster we use JPS command. JPS stands for Java Virtual Machine Process Status Tool or [JVM Process Status tool]. Below are some important points which one should remember at the time of using JPS command. To check all running nodes on the host via jps, you need to run the command as r oot. Otherwise, jps will only show nodes which you have currently logged-in user as. Example of JPS What-is-JPS-in-Hadoop By Prajjwal

How to remove duplicates from data?

Removing Duplicates from Production Data in Real-Time Using SQL Handling duplicates in production data requires efficient strategies to maintain data integrity and avoid system performance issues. Here’s a structured approach to achieve this: --- ### **1. Prevention: Use Unique Constraints** The best way to deal with duplicates is to prevent them. Ensure your database schema is designed to enforce uniqueness: - **Primary Key**: Define a primary key to prevent identical rows. - **Unique Constraints**: Apply unique constraints to columns or combinations of columns that should not contain duplicate values. **Example:** ```sql ALTER TABLE my_table ADD CONSTRAINT unique_constraint_name UNIQUE (column1, column2); ``` --- ### **2. Identifying Duplicates** Before removing duplicates, identify them using `GROUP BY` and `HAVING`: **Example:** ```sql SELECT column1, column2, COUNT(*) AS duplicate_count FROM my_table GROUP BY colu...
