Jean-Baptiste Onofré commented on BEAM-59:
------------------------------------------
Hi guys,
HDFS (and other filesystems like S3, ...) is a recurrent question. If we have
the HdfsIO, I think it would make sense to remove it and to refactore
FileBasedSource/FileBasedSink to support those new filesystems.
[[email protected]] maybe we can work together on a proposal we can send on
the mailing list ?
Thanks !
> IOChannelFactory rethinking/redesign
> ------------------------------------
>
> Key: BEAM-59
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-59
> Project: Beam
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: sdk-java-core, sdk-java-gcp
> Reporter: Daniel Halperin
>
> Right now, FileBasedSource and FileBasedSink communication is mediated by
> IOChannelFactory. There are a number of issues:
> * Global configuration -- e.g., all 'gs://' URIs use the same credentials.
> This should be per-source/per-sink/etc.
> * Supported APIs -- currently IOChannelFactory is in the "non-public API"
> util package and subject to change. We need users to be able to add new
> backends ('s3://', 'hdfs://', etc.) directly, without fear that they will be
> broken.
> * Per-backend features: e.g., creating buckets in GCS/s3, setting expiration
> time, etc.
