Are you sure that you use S3A? Because EMR says that they do not support S3A https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/emr-file-system-s3/ > Amazon EMR does not currently support use of the Apache Hadoop S3A file > system. I think that the HEAD requests come from the `createBucketIfNotExists` in the AWS S3 library that checks if the bucket exists every time you do a PUT request, i.e. creates a HEAD request. You can disable that by setting `fs.s3.buckets.create.enabled` to `false` http://docs.aws.amazon.com/emr/latest/ManagementGuide/emr-plan-upload-s3.html Yeah, I'd like to see the stack traces before blaming S3A and the ASF codebase One thing I do know is that the shipping S3A client doesn't have any explicit handling of 503/retry events. I know that: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-14531 There is some retry logic in bits of the AWS SDK related to file upload: that may log and retry, but in all the operations listing files, getting their details, etc: no resilience to throttling. If it is surfacing against s3a, there isn't anything which can immediately be done to fix it, other than "spread your data around more buckets". Do attach the stack trace you get under https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-14381 though: I'm about half-way through the resilience code (& fault injection needed to test it). The more where I can see problems arise, the more confident I can be that those codepaths will be resilient.

We set mapreduce.fileoutputcommitter.algorithm.version=2 and are using encrypted S3 buckets. This has been working fine for us, but perhaps as we've been running more jobs in parallel, we've started getting errors like Status Code: 503, AWS Service: Amazon S3, AWS Request ID: ..., AWS Error Code: SlowDown, AWS Error Message: Please reduce your request rate., S3 Extended Request ID: ... We enabled CloudWatch S3 request metrics for one of our buckets and I was a little alarmed to see spikes of over 800k S3 requests over a minute or so, with the bulk of them HEAD requests. We read and write Parquet files, and most tables have around 50 shards/parts, though some have up to 200. I imagine there's additional parallelism when reading a shard in Parquet, though. Has anyone else encountered this? How did you solve it? I'd sure prefer to avoid copying all our data in and out of HDFS for each job, if possible. Thanks!
