> Key: FLINK-7265
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-7265
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 1.3.1
> Reporter: Stephan Ewen
> Assignee: Stephan Ewen
> Fix For: 1.4.0, 1.3.2
>
>
> Currently, all {{FileSystem}} types look the same to Flink.
> However, certain operations should only be executed on certain kinds of file
> systems.
> For example, it makes no sense to attempt to delete an empty parent directory
> on S3, because there are no such thinks as directories, only hierarchical
> naming in the keys (file names).
