+=== Hadoop Gateway
+
+*The hadoop gateway is deprecated and will be removed in a future
+version. Please use the
+<<modules-gateway-local,local gateway>>
+instead.*
+
+The hadoop (HDFS) based gateway stores the cluster meta and indices data
+in hadoop. Hadoop support is provided as a plugin and installing is
+explained https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-hadoop[here] or
+downloading the hadoop plugin and placing it under the `plugins`
+directory. Here is an example config to enable it:
+
+[source,js]
+--------------------------------------------------
+gateway:
+ type: hdfs
+ hdfs:
+ uri: hdfs://myhost:8022
+--------------------------------------------------
+

+==== Settings
+
+The hadoop gateway requires two simple settings. The `gateway.hdfs.uri`
+controls the URI to connect to the hadoop cluster, for example:
+`hdfs://myhost:8022`. The `gateway.hdfs.path` controls the path under
+which the gateway will store the data.
+
+[float]
+==== concurrent_streams
+
+The `gateway.hdfs.concurrent_streams` allow to throttle the number of
+streams (per node) opened against the shared gateway performing the
+snapshot operation. It defaults to `5`.
