[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-574?page=comments#action_12454681 ] Tom White commented on HADOOP-574: ----------------------------------
I like the proposal and started to implement it, but then I discovered that my secret key contains '/' characters (two in fact), which makes it awkward to turn into a URI, since you have to manually escape them. While this is doable, it seems to me that it makes it harder to configure, and could be a source of interesting support questions. I haven't really got a better alternative though. > want FileSystem implementation for Amazon S3 > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-574 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-574 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: fs > Affects Versions: 0.9.0 > Reporter: Doug Cutting > Attachments: dependencies.zip, HADOOP-574-v2.patch, HADOOP-574.patch > > > An S3-based Hadoop FileSystem would make a great addition to Hadoop. > It would facillitate use of Hadoop on Amazon's EC2 computing grid, as > discussed here: > http://www.mail-archive.com/hadoop-user@lucene.apache.org/msg00318.html > This is related to HADOOP-571, which would make Hadoop's FileSystem > considerably easier to extend. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
