Steven K. Wong commented on HADOOP-13336:
-----------------------------------------

S3A already supports cross-region, if your config doesn't specify endpoint and 
doesn't enable path-style access. I am able to {{hadoop fs -cp}} a file from an 
S3 bucket in one region (us-east-1) to another S3 bucket in a different region 
(us-west-1).

> S3a now supports different regions, by way of declaring the endpoint —but you 
> can't do things like read in one region, write back in another (e.g. a distcp 
> backup), because only one region can be specified in a configuration.
> If s3a supported region declaration in the URL, e.g. s3a://b1.frankfurt 
> s3a://b2.seol , then this would be possible. 
> Swift does this with a full filesystem binding/config: endpoints, username, 
> etc, in the XML file. Would we need to do that much? It'd be simpler 
> initially to use a domain suffix of a URL to set the region of a bucket from 
> the domain and have the aws library sort the details out itself, maybe with 
> some config options for working with non-AWS infra
