It manages the file system namespace and regulates access to files by clients. It does not store actual data, which is stored in DataNodes. It also does not perform read-write operations on behalf of clients.<\/p>\n<p>The NameNode is a critical component of HDFS and its failure can cause the entire system to become unavailable. It is typically deployed on a highly available cluster of machines to ensure that it is always available.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a brief explanation of each option:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Option A: The NameNode manages the file system namespace. This means that it keeps track of all the files and directories in the HDFS, as well as their locations on the DataNodes.<\/li>\n<li>Option B: The DataNodes are responsible for storing actual data. They do this by replicating the data across multiple nodes in the cluster.<\/li>\n<li>Option C: The NameNode does not perform read-write operations on behalf of clients.
