             Summary: Initialize DynamoDBMetadataStore without associated 
S3AFileSystem
                 Key: HADOOP-13960
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13960
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: fs/s3
            Reporter: Mingliang Liu
            Assignee: Mingliang Liu


Per the discussion in [HADOOP-13650], it's helpful to initialize a 
DynamoDBMetadataStore object without S3AFileSystem. In the current code, we can 
achieve this via {{DynamoDBMetadataStore#initialize(Configuration)}}. However, 
users still have to provide the associated S3AFileSystem URI in the 
configuration, by means of either setting the {{fs.defaultFS}} in configuration 
file or {{-fs s3://bucket}} command line parameter. Setting the default 
FileSystem in configuration seems not necessary as the command line is to 
manipulate metadata store, e.g. command line tools on an existing HDFS cluster.

This JIRA is to track the effort of initializing a DynamoDBMetadataStore 
without associating any S3 buckets, so that S3AFileSystem is not needed. Users 
have to specify in configuration the DynamoDB endpoints (for region) and table 
name along with credentials, AWS client settings.

See [~eddyxu] and [~liuml07]'s comments in [HADOOP-13650] for more details.
