roeap opened a new issue #1313: URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/issues/1313
**Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge? Please describe what you are trying to do.** From what I can gather from the codebase, it seems the synchronous APIs are exclusively used when using the object store. At least in my experience, the SDKs for remote object stores have asynchronous methods as primary APIs. Furthermore invoking a synchronous method inside async is straight forward by spawning a blocking task. On the other hand I could not figure out a way to call async code inside a sync method when already inside a tokio runtime (i.e. cannot call block_on ...) **Describe the solution you'd like** Use the async object store APIs by default, to facilitate implementation of remote object stores. **Describe alternatives you've considered** Alternatively a flag on the object store might be used to check if sync or async calls should be used. Or maybe I missed an obvious solution :) **Additional context** Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
