[jira] [Commented] (HADOOP-13336) support cross-region operations in S3a

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13336?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15410728#comment-15410728 ] 

Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-13336:
-----------------------------------------

problem is that with V4 auth you have to spec the endpoint, so you can't do a cp from frankfurt to s korea...or just from us-east to frankfurt

> S3a now supports different regions, by way of declaring the endpoint —but you can't do things like read in one region, write back in another (e.g. a distcp backup), because only one region can be specified in a configuration.
> If s3a supported region declaration in the URL, e.g. s3a://b1.frankfurt s3a://b2.seol , then this would be possible. 
> Swift does this with a full filesystem binding/config: endpoints, username, etc, in the XML file. Would we need to do that much? It'd be simpler initially to use a domain suffix of a URL to set the region of a bucket from the domain and have the aws library sort the details out itself, maybe with some config options for working with non-AWS infra
