title: Is there a difference between webhdfs:// and hdfs:// in terms of underlying protocol?
body: <p>Right now I am ingesting logs via HttpFS, which is falling apart at the sheer volume. I cannot run JVM on my edge for performance reasons. So I was thinking of using the native protocol for ingest (I've heard it's either IPC or raw network socket magic)</p>
  
  <h1>webhdfs HttpFS underlying</h1>
  
  <p>hadoop fs -put localfile -fs webhdfs://datanode:14000/hadoopfile</p>
  
  <h1>hdfs ?? what's underlying</h1>
  
  <p>hadoop fs -put localfile hdfs://namenode/hadoopfile</p>
