Dell EMC Associate – Information Storage and Management v5 — Question 3

Which file system provides a streaming interface using the MapReduce framework?

Answer options

• A. CIFS
• B. HDFS
• C. NFS
• D. NTFS

Correct answer: B

Explanation

HDFS (Hadoop Distributed File System) is specifically designed to work with the MapReduce framework, allowing for efficient data processing in a distributed environment. In contrast, CIFS, NFS, and NTFS are not optimized for this type of data processing and do not provide the same streaming capabilities as HDFS.
