             Summary: Support Custom PartitionSpec Provider for Kinesis 
Firehose or similar
                 Key: SPARK-21706
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-21706
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: SQL
    Affects Versions: 2.2.0, 2.1.1, 1.6.3
            Reporter: Sebastian Herold


Many people are using Kinesis Firehose to ingest data into a S3-based data 
lake. Kinesis Firehose produces a directory layout like this:
{code}
s3://data-lake-bucket/my-prefix/2017/08/11/10/my-stream-2017-08-11-11-10-10
s3://data-lake-bucket/my-prefix/2017/08/11/11/my-stream-2017-08-11-11-11-10
  .
  .
  .
s3://data-lake-bucket/my-prefix/2017/08/12/00/my-stream-2017-08-12-00-01-01
{code}

Spark is (like Hive) not supporting this kind of partitioning. Therefore it 
would be great, if you could configure a {{CustomPartitionDiscoverer}} or 
{{PartitionSpecProvider}} to provide a custom partition mapping and easily 
select a date range of files afterwards. Sadly, the partition discovery is 
deeply integrated into {{DataSource}}. 
*Could this be encapsulated smarter to be able to intercept the default 
behaviour?*

Another partition schema that I've seen a lot in this context is:
{code}
s3://data-lake-bucket/prefix/2017-08-11/file.1.json
s3://data-lake-bucket/prefix/2017-08-11/file.2.json
  .
  .
  .
s3://data-lake-bucket/prefix/2017-08-12/file.1.json
{code}
