Description

Currently the WASB implementation of the HDFS interface does not support the utilization of Azure AppendBlobs underneath. As owners of a large scale service who intend to start writing to Append blobs, we need this support in order to be able to keep using our HDI capabilities.

This JIRA is added to implement Azure AppendBlob support to WASB.
