Reuven Lax commented on BEAM-5036: ---------------------------------- Actually I believe GCS _does_ support efficient object rename. Check out https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/json_api/v1/objects/rewrite > Optimize FileBasedSink's WriteOperation.moveToOutput() > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: BEAM-5036 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-5036 > Project: Beam > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: io-java-files > Affects Versions: 2.5.0 > Reporter: Jozef Vilcek > Assignee: Tim Robertson > Priority: Major > Time Spent: 1.5h > Remaining Estimate: 0h > > moveToOutput() methods in FileBasedSink.WriteOperation implements move by > copy+delete. It would be better to use a rename() which can be much more > effective for some filesystems. > Filesystem must support cross-directory rename. BEAM-4861 is related to this > for the case of HDFS filesystem. > Feature was discussed here: > http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/beam-dev/201807.mbox/%3CCAF9t7_4Mp54pQ+vRrJrBh9Vx0=uaknupzd_qdh_qdm9vxll...@mail.gmail.com%3E -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
