Assignee: Gabor Bota
> S3Guard: document how to deal with non-S3Guard processes writing data to
> S3Guarded buckets
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-15780
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-15780
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Affects Versions: 3.2.0
> Reporter: Aaron Fabbri
> Assignee: Gabor Bota
> Priority: Minor
>
> Our general policy for S3Guard is this: All modifiers of a bucket that is
> configured for use with S3Guard, must use S3Guard. Otherwise, the
> MetadataStore will not be properly updated as the S3 bucket changes and
> problems will arise.
> There are limited circumstances in which may be safe to have an external
> (non-s3guard) process writing data. There are also scenarios where it
> definitely breaks things.
> I think we should start by documenting the cases that this works / does not
> work for. After we've enumerated that, we can suggest enhancements as needed
> to make this sort of configuration easier to use.
> To get the ball rolling, some things that do not work:
> - Deleting a path *p* with S3Guard, then writing a new file at path *p*
> without S3guard (will still have delete marker in S3Guard, making the file
> appear to be deleted but still visible in S3 due to false "eventual
> consistency") (as [[email protected]] and I have discussed)
> - When fs.s3a.metadatastore.authoritative is true, adding files to
> directories without S3Guard, then listing with S3Guard may exclude
> externally-written files from listings.
> (Note, there are also S3A interop issues with other non-S3A clients even
> without S3Guard, due to the unique way S3A interprets empty directory
> markers).
