# HDFS[¶](https://doc.dataiku.com/dss/latest/connecting/hdfs.html#hdfs "Permalink to this headline")

DSS can connect to filesystems based on the “Hadoop Filesystem” API to

* Read and write datasets

* Read and write managed folders

## Compatible filesystems[¶](https://doc.dataiku.com/dss/latest/connecting/hdfs.html#compatible-filesystems "Permalink to this headline")

DSS can read/write from any kind of Hadoop Filesystem and has been tested with the following URL schemes:

* `hdfs://`

* `maprfs://`

* `s3a://`

* `wasb://`

* `adl://`

Note

DSS collectively refers all “Hadoop Filesystem” URIs as the “HDFS” dataset, even though it supports more than `hdfs://` URIs
