What is secondary namenode? Is it a substitute or back up node for the namenode?
Answer / Rajani Sachan
The Secondary NameNode is not a substitute or backup node for the NameNode, but rather it performs periodic checks of the Namenode's memory structures and saves them to the filesystem. This helps in reducing the size of the NameNode's memory structures and prevents potential crashes due to memory exhaustion.
