How does Hadoop's HDFS differ from traditional file systems?

  • HDFS breaks files into blocks and distributes them across a cluster for parallel processing.
  • HDFS is designed only for small-scale data storage.
  • HDFS supports real-time processing of data.
  • Traditional file systems use a distributed architecture similar to HDFS.
Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) breaks large files into smaller blocks and distributes them across a cluster of machines. This enables parallel processing and fault tolerance, which are not characteristics of traditional file systems.
