Hortonworks provides the storm-hdfs and storm-hbase
connectors to enable Storm developers to quickly write streaming data to a Hadoop
cluster. These connectors are located at /usr/lib/storm/contrib, and each
contains a .jar file containing the connector's packaged classes and dependencies and
another .jar file with javadoc reference documentation. Both storm-hdfs and
storm-hbase support writing to HDFS clusters using Kerberos. In
addition, the storm-hdfs connector supports HA-enabled clusters.
