# Using HDFS

Available in VPC

This guide describes how to use HDFS in Data Forest.

## HDFS namespace

The HDFS provided in Data Forest is accessed through a namespace, the logical name of HDFS, rather than using NameNode server information such as host name and port. The HDFS namespaces in Data Forest are "koya" and "tata."

```
# HDFS NAMESPACE : koya
hdfs://koya/<hdfs path>

# HDFS NAMESPACE : tata
hdfs://tata/<hdfs path>
```

### View namespace quota information

You can view the HDFS quota configured for each account in the account details section.

1. In the VPC environment on the NAVER Cloud Platform console, navigate to **Menu** > **All Services** > **Big Data & Analytics** > **Data Forest** > **Accounts**.
2. Click the account section to view account details.
  - **name quota(file count)**: Number of files available for the HDFS namespace
  - **space quota(capacity)**: Storage capacity available for the HDFS namespace
