Chris Nauroth commented on HADOOP-13728:
----------------------------------------
Yes, I was thinking hard-coded aliases, just to cover the most commonly used
credential providers. I think an alias configuration file, or anything like
the file system scheme configuration flexibility, would be over-engineering.
We aren't seeing custom credential providers as a typical use case so far, so I
think it's fine to keep using full class names in the rare case that someone
needs that.
> S3A can support short user-friendly aliases for configuration of credential
> providers.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13728
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: fs/s3
> Reporter: Chris Nauroth
> Priority: Minor
>
> This issue proposes to support configuration of the S3A credential provider
> chain using short aliases to refer to the common credential providers in
> addition to allowing full class names. Supporting short aliases would
> provide a simpler operations experience for the most common cases.
