--------------------------------------
Summary: Allow backup/restoration to Amazon's S3 blobstore
Key: SOLR-15089
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-15089
Project: Solr
Issue Type: Sub-task
Security Level: Public (Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
Reporter: Jason Gerlowski
Solr's BackupRepository interface provides an abstraction around the physical
location/format that backups are stored in. This allows plugin writers to
create "repositories" for a variety of storage mediums. It'd be nice if Solr
offered more mediums out of the box though, such as some of the "blobstore"
offerings provided by various cloud providers.
This ticket proposes that a "BackupRepository" implementation for Amazon's
popular 'S3' blobstore, so that Solr users can use it for backups without
needing to write their own code.
Amazon offers a s3 Java client with acceptable licensing, and the required code
is relatively simple. The biggest challenge in supporting this will likely be
procedural - integration testing requires S3 access and S3 access costs money.
We can check with INFRA to see if there is any way to get cloud credits for an
integration test to run in nightly Jenkins runs on the ASF Jenkins server.
Alternatively we can try to stub out the blobstore in some reliable way.
