-------------------------------------

             Summary: Generalize Flink's DistributedFileSystemClass to a Hadoop FileSystem wrapper
                 Key: FLINK-1266
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1266
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Robert Metzger
            Priority: Minor


Currently, the Hadoop's DistributedFileSystem class is somewhat hardwired into the Flink DistributedFileSystem class.
That is actually not necessary because Flink's DistributedFileSystem class is only assuming Hadoop's FileSystem class.

By generalizing the Flink DFS class, we can easily support other file systems implementing the Hadoop FS class, such as the GoogleHadoopFileSystem, Tachyon and others.
