Name Node Design and its working in HDFS

Whenever a user tries to stores a file in HDFS, the file is first break down into data blocks, and three replicas of these data blocks are stored in slave nodes (data nodes) throughout the Hadoop cluster

As we already know now that HDFS is a journaled file system, where new changes to files in HDFS are captured in an edit log that’s stored on the NameNode in a file named edits.
