How NameNode tackle Datanode failures in HDFS?



How NameNode tackle Datanode failures in HDFS?..

Answer / Rajesh Kumar Sahu

NameNode handles DataNode failures in HDFS (Hadoop Distributed File System) by monitoring the heartbeats sent by each DataNode. When a DataNode fails to send its heartbeat, the NameNode marks it as dead and begins re-replicating any blocks that were stored on the failed DataNode across other healthy DataNodes to maintain data availability and reliability.
