Chapter 9. Creating an S3 Storage (metastore.add_storage)
Execute the following command:
SELECT metastore.add_storage('storage_name', 'root_directory_URI', 'temporary_directory_URI');
Where:
storage_name: The unique storage name.root_directory_URI: The URI of the root directory of the storage.temporary_directory_URI: The URI of the storage directory for temporary files.
Local storages have simple URIs, for example, file:///home/j.doe/workspace/axe/.
S3 storages have URIs with more complicated structures and parsing, for example, s3://premdb/team01.csv?versionId=w_B5qT8s5MkiT09.IRHay0lW.PycsHTS. These URIs are generated using third-party libraries.
