HDFS

HDFS is a file system that is meant for storing large data sets and being fault tolerant. In a production system, your Spark cluster should ideally be on the same machines as your Hadoop cluster to make it easy to read files. The Spark binary you run on your clusters must be compiled with the same HDFS version as the one you wish to use.

There are many ways to install HDFS, but heading to the Hadoop homepage is one way to get started and run hdfs locally on your machine.

Run LogAnalyzerBatchImport.java on any file pattern on your hdfs directory.
