[jira] [Commented] (HADOOP-13282) S3 blob etags to be made visible
in status/getFileChecksum() calls
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13282?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16235561#comment-16235561 ]
Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-13282:
-----------------------------------------
+as it saves 1 GET +path "/" + one List, it saves ~ $0.009 to discover a file doesn't exist. We could switch to it across the internal bits of our code which only look for the existence of a file; the presence of a directory is considered as much a failure as no file.

> If the etags of blobs were exported via {{getFileChecksum()}}, it'd be possible to probe for a blob being in sync with a local file. Distcp could use this to decide whether to skip a file or not.
> Now, there's a problem there: distcp needs source and dest filesystems to implement the same algorithm. It'd only work out the box if you were copying between S3 instances. There are also quirks with encryption and multipart: [s3 docs|http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/RESTCommonResponseHeaders.html]. At the very least, it's something which could be used when indexing the FS, to check for changes later.
