----------------------------------------
Summary: Google Cloud Storage supports chunked uploads
Key: LIBCLOUD-895
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LIBCLOUD-895
Project: Libcloud
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Storage
Reporter: Sumukh Sridhara
Priority: Minor
Google Cloud Storage supports chunked encoding for uploads. (Link:
https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/streaming)
We enabled this and saw a 2-4x performance improvement on upload times (mainly
because we didn't have to buffer the whole file)
GoogleStorageDriver.supports_chunked_encoding is set to False currently but
Changes required:
- Change `supports_chunked_encoding` to True
- Minor refactor to verify the hash when uploading via stream since we can
calculate the hash. Google recommends verifying the hash for a
streaming/chunked upload. The current implementation sets verify_hash=False and
does not accept it as an argument. There are a variety of ways to fix this -
but I'm not sure what would be best.
