Aaron Fabbri commented on HADOOP-13345:
---------------------------------------

S3Guard is specifically designed to allow multiple backend implementations for 
MetadataStore (the interface that stores metadata).  So far we have an 
in-memory "reference" or testing implementation, and one for DynamoDB.  We 
expect more back ends to be implemented in the future.

Note there is also a test suite that ensures that different implementations 
provide correct semantics.

> This issue proposes S3Guard, a new feature of S3A, to provide an option for a 
> stronger consistency model than what is currently offered.  The solution 
> coordinates with a strongly consistent external store to resolve 
> inconsistencies caused by the S3 eventual consistency model.
