This topic describes how to configure an endpoint to access OSS-HDFS (JindoFS).

Method 1: (Recommended) Configure an endpoint in the access path

We recommend that you access OSS-HDFS by using an access path in the oss://<Bucket>.<Endpoint>/<Object> format, such as oss://example-oss-bucket.cn-shanghai.oss-dls.aliyuncs.com/Test. The access path contains the endpoint that you can use to access OSS-HDFS. JindoSDK accesses OSS-HDFS based on the endpoint in the path.

Method 2: Configure a bucket-level endpoint

If you use an access path in the oss://<Bucket>/<Object> format to access OSS-HDFS and you do not configure an endpoint in the access path, JindoSDK searches for a bucket-level endpoint in the configurations. In this case, you can configure a bucket-level endpoint in the core-site.xml configuration file of Hadoop to point to OSS-HDFS. 
<configuration>
    <property>
        <name>fs.oss.bucket.XXX.endpoint</name>
        <value>cn-xxx.oss-dls.aliyuncs.com</value>
    </property>
</configuration>
Note XXX indicates the name of the OSS-HDFS bucket.

Method 3: Configure a global endpoint

If you use an access path in the oss://<Bucket>/<Object> format to access OSS-HDFS and you do not configure a bucket-level endpoint, JindoSDK uses a global endpoint to access OSS-HDFS. If you want to access OSS-HDFS by default, you can use this method. You can configure a global endpoint in the core-site.xml configuration file of Hadoop. 
<configuration>
    <property>
        <name>fs.oss.endpoint</name>
        <value>cn-xxx.oss-dls.aliyuncs.com</value>
    </property>
</configuration>
