Ewan Higgs commented on HDFS-13186:
-----------------------------------
[~ste...@apache.org]
{quote} * I worry about how to do ser/deser securely; because I don't want to
use things like Java serialization to persist the intermediate state
* the multipart put should also allow caller to supply a File and range refs;
makes it easier to upload buffered data, especially when client libs (like AWS
SDK) are better at recovery of POST failures when it knows its reading off a
file.{quote}
I'm not sure if/how these concerns are applicable here. Maybe with the given
patch the issues could be described more concretely? Thanks!
> [WRITE] Multipart Multinode uploader API + Implementations

> To write files in parallel to an external storage system as in HDFS-12090,
> there are two approaches:
> # Naive approach: use a single datanode per file that copies blocks locally
> as it streams data to the external service. This requires a copy for each
> block inside the HDFS system and then a copy for the block to be sent to the
> external system.
> # Better approach: Single point (e.g. Namenode or SPS style external client)
> and Datanodes coordinate in a multipart - multinode upload.
> This system needs to work with multiple back ends and needs to coordinate
> across the network. So we propose an API that resembles the following:
> {code:java}
> public UploadHandle multipartInit(Path filePath) throws IOException;
> public PartHandle multipartPutPart(InputStream inputStream,
> int partNumber, UploadHandle uploadId) throws IOException;
> public void multipartComplete(Path filePath,
> List<Pair<Integer, PartHandle>> handles,
> UploadHandle multipartUploadId) throws IOException;{code}
> Here, UploadHandle and PartHandle are opaque handlers in the vein of
> PathHandle so they can be serialized and deserialized in hadoop-hdfs project
> without knowledge of how to deserialize e.g. S3A's version of a UpoadHandle
> and PartHandle.
> In an object store such as S3A, the implementation is straight forward. In
> the case of writing multipart/multinode to HDFS, we can write each block as a
> file part. The complete call will perform a concat on the blocks.
