Sergio Peña commented on HIVE-14271: ------------------------------------ Agree with approach #2. If outPath and finalPath are scratch directories, then we can just write directly to finalPath and avoid the rename. [~ste...@apache.org] There is another patch to do S3-to-S3 renames in parallel to speed up the COPY operations (See HIVE-15093) > FileSinkOperator should not rename files to final paths when S3 is the > default destination > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HIVE-14271 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-14271 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Sergio Peña > Assignee: Sergio Peña > > FileSinkOperator does a rename of {{outPaths -> finalPaths}} when it finished > writing all rows to a temporary path. The problem is that S3 does not support > renaming. > Two options can be considered: > a. Use a copy operation instead. After FileSinkOperator writes all rows to > outPaths, then the commit method will do a copy() call instead of move(). > b. Write row by row directly to the S3 path (see HIVE-1620). This may add > better performance calls, but we should take care of the cleanup part in case > of writing errors. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
