Steve Loughran created HADOOP-13884: ---------------------------------------
Summary: s3a create(overwrite=true) to only look for dir/ and list entries, not file Key: HADOOP-13884 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13884 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Sub-task Components: fs/s3 Affects Versions: 2.9.0 Reporter: Steve Loughran Priority: Minor before doing a create(), s3a does a getFileStatus() to make sure there isn't a directory there, and, if overwrite=false, that there isn't a file. Because S3 caches negative HEAD/GET requests, if there isn't a file, then even after the PUT, a later GET/HEAD may return 404; we are generating create consistency where none need exist. when overwrite=true we don't care whether the file exists or not, only that the path isn't a directory. So we can just to the HEAD path +"/' and the LIST calls, skipping the {{HEAD path}}. This will save an HTTP round trip of a few hundred millis, and ensure that there's no 404 cached in the S3 front end for later callers -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: common-dev-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: common-dev-h...@hadoop.apache.org
