Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-12963:
-----------------------------------------
We need those tests so that
# We can catch when amazon change things
# we can be sure that the feature actually works
# we can see what happens when tested against other people's S3
implementations. Most of the recent patches have covered optimisations in such
deployments, and compatibility problems. Having an s3a test lets the
implementors see whether/how s3a works here.
> Allow using path style addressing for accessing the s3 endpoint

> There is no ability to specify using path style access for the s3 endpoint.
> There are numerous non-amazon implementations of storage that support the
> amazon API's but only support path style access such as Cleversafe and Ceph.
> Additionally in many environments it is difficult to configure DNS correctly
> to get virtual host style addressing to work
