HDFS Commands

HDFS commands are instructions used to manage files and data within the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS). Similar to how you might manage files on your computer, these commands allow you to create, delete, move, and view data stored across multiple servers. They help in organizing and accessing large datasets efficiently, ensuring data reliability and scalability. For example, commands like `hdfs dfs -put` upload files, `hdfs dfs -ls` list directory contents, and `hdfs dfs -rm` delete files, making data management straightforward in a distributed computing environment.
