[jira] [Commented] (BIGTOP-866) add OpenStack swift filesystem support for Hadoop as new RPM/deb

["Steve Loughran (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-866?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13598995#comment-13598995 ] 

Steve Loughran commented on BIGTOP-866:
---------------------------------------

>From the HADOOP-8545 work, we've started writing integration tests that use OpenStack swift as a source and destination for Pig, MR and ultimately, Hive work. These verify that the filesystem are compatible at the MR layer.

[https://github.com/hortonworks/Hadoop-and-Swift-integration/tree/hwx/swiftfs-integration] 

These tests cannot go into hadoop-common with HADOOP-8545, because they depend on many downstream artifacts. If they were made more generic they could be used to test many external filesystems, including Amazon S3 and FTP -which cannot be tested by setting {{fs.default.name}} and running existing test suites, because they are not conventional filesystems.
