Replication causes data redundancy and consume a lot of space, then why is it pursued in hdfs?..

Answer / Gyan Chand

In HDFS, replication is pursued to ensure data durability and high availability. By storing multiple copies of each data block across different datanodes, HDFS can withstand datanode failures without losing data. This redundancy helps in maintaining data integrity even during network partitions or hardware failures.
