Chapter 3. Ceph Object Gateway and the S3 API

As a developer, you can use a RESTful application programming interface (API) that is compatible with the Amazon S3 data access model. You can manage the buckets and objects stored in a Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster through the Ceph Object Gateway.

Prerequisites

A running Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster.
A RESTful client.

3.1. S3 limitations

Important

The following limitations should be used with caution. There are implications related to your hardware selections, so you should always discuss these requirements with your Red Hat account team.

Maximum object size when using Amazon S3: Individual Amazon S3 objects can range in size from a minimum of 0B to a maximum of 5TB. The largest object that can be uploaded in a single PUT is 5GB. For objects larger than 100MB, you should consider using the Multipart Upload capability.
Maximum metadata size when using Amazon S3: There is no defined limit on the total size of user metadata that can be applied to an object, but a single HTTP request is limited to 16,000 bytes.
The amount of data overhead Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster produces to store S3 objects and metadata: The estimate here is 200-300 bytes plus the length of the object name. Versioned objects consume additional space proportional to the number of versions. Also, transient overhead is produced during multi-part upload and other transactional updates, but these overheads are recovered during garbage collection.

Additional Resources

See the Red Hat Ceph Storage Developer Guide for details on the unsupported header fields.

3.2. Accessing the Ceph Object Gateway with the S3 API

As a developer, you must configure access to the Ceph Object Gateway and the Secure Token Service (STS) before you can start using the Amazon S3 API.

Prerequisites

A running Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster.
A running Ceph Object Gateway.
A RESTful client.

3.2.1. S3 authentication

Requests to the Ceph Object Gateway can be either authenticated or unauthenticated. Ceph Object Gateway assumes unauthenticated requests are sent by an anonymous user. Ceph Object Gateway supports canned ACLs.

For most use cases, clients use existing open source libraries like the Amazon SDK’s AmazonS3Client for Java, and Python Boto. With open source libraries you simply pass in the access key and secret key and the library builds the request header and authentication signature for you. However, you can create requests and sign them too.

Authenticating a request requires including an access key and a base 64-encoded hash-based Message Authentication Code (HMAC) in the request before it is sent to the Ceph Object Gateway server. Ceph Object Gateway uses an S3-compatible authentication approach.

Example

HTTP/1.1
PUT /buckets/bucket/object.mpeg
Host: cname.domain.com
Date: Mon, 2 Jan 2012 00:01:01 +0000
Content-Encoding: mpeg
Content-Length: 9999999

Authorization: AWS ACCESS_KEY:HASH_OF_HEADER_AND_SECRET

In the above example, replace ACCESS_KEY with the value for the access key ID followed by a colon (:). Replace HASH_OF_HEADER_AND_SECRET with a hash of a canonicalized header string and the secret corresponding to the access key ID.

Generate hash of header string and secret

To generate the hash of the header string and secret:

Get the value of the header string.
Normalize the request header string into canonical form.
Generate an HMAC using a SHA-1 hashing algorithm.
Encode the hmac result as base-64.

Normalize header

To normalize the header into canonical form:

Get all content- headers.
Remove all content- headers except for content-type and content-md5.
Ensure the content- header names are lowercase.
Sort the content- headers lexicographically.
Ensure you have a Date header AND ensure the specified date uses GMT and not an offset.
Get all headers beginning with x-amz-.
Ensure that the x-amz- headers are all lowercase.
Sort the x-amz- headers lexicographically.
Combine multiple instances of the same field name into a single field and separate the field values with a comma.
Replace white space and line breaks in header values with a single space.
Remove white space before and after colons.
Append a new line after each header.
Merge the headers back into the request header.

Replace the HASH_OF_HEADER_AND_SECRET with the base-64 encoded HMAC string.

Additional Resources

For additional details, consult the Signing and Authenticating REST Requests section of Amazon Simple Storage Service documentation.

3.2.2. S3-server-side encryption

The Ceph Object Gateway supports server-side encryption of uploaded objects for the S3 application programming interface (API). Server-side encryption means that the S3 client sends data over HTTP in its unencrypted form, and the Ceph Object Gateway stores that data in the Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster in encrypted form.

Note

Red Hat does NOT support S3 object encryption of Static Large Object (SLO) or Dynamic Large Object (DLO).

Important

To use encryption, client requests MUST send requests over an SSL connection. Red Hat does not support S3 encryption from a client unless the Ceph Object Gateway uses SSL. However, for testing purposes, administrators can disable SSL during testing by setting the rgw_crypt_require_ssl configuration setting to false at runtime, using the ceph config set client.rgw command, and then restarting the Ceph Object Gateway instance.

In a production environment, it might not be possible to send encrypted requests over SSL. In such a case, send requests using HTTP with server-side encryption.

For information about how to configure HTTP with server-side encryption, see the Additional Resources section below.

There are two options for the management of encryption keys:

Customer-provided Keys

When using customer-provided keys, the S3 client passes an encryption key along with each request to read or write encrypted data. It is the customer’s responsibility to manage those keys. Customers must remember which key the Ceph Object Gateway used to encrypt each object.

Ceph Object Gateway implements the customer-provided key behavior in the S3 API according to the Amazon SSE-C specification.

Since the customer handles the key management and the S3 client passes keys to the Ceph Object Gateway, the Ceph Object Gateway requires no special configuration to support this encryption mode.

Key Management Service

When using a key management service, the secure key management service stores the keys and the Ceph Object Gateway retrieves them on demand to serve requests to encrypt or decrypt data.

Ceph Object Gateway implements the key management service behavior in the S3 API according to the Amazon SSE-KMS specification.

Important

Currently, the only tested key management implementations are HashiCorp Vault, and OpenStack Barbican. However, OpenStack Barbican is a Technology Preview and is not supported for use in production systems.

3.2.3. S3 access control lists

Ceph Object Gateway supports S3-compatible Access Control Lists (ACL) functionality. An ACL is a list of access grants that specify which operations a user can perform on a bucket or on an object. Each grant has a different meaning when applied to a bucket versus applied to an object:

Table 3.1. User Operations
Permission	Bucket	Object
`READ`	Grantee can list the objects in the bucket.	Grantee can read the object.
`WRITE`	Grantee can write or delete objects in the bucket.	N/A
`READ_ACP`	Grantee can read bucket ACL.	Grantee can read the object ACL.
`WRITE_ACP`	Grantee can write bucket ACL.	Grantee can write to the object ACL.
`FULL_CONTROL`	Grantee has full permissions for object in the bucket.	Grantee can read or write to the object ACL.

3.2.4. Preparing access to the Ceph Object Gateway using S3

You have to follow some pre-requisites on the Ceph Object Gateway node before attempting to access the gateway server.

Prerequisites

Installation of the Ceph Object Gateway software.
Root-level access to the Ceph Object Gateway node.

Procedure

As root, open port 8080 on the firewall:

[root@rgw ~]# firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=8080/tcp --permanent
[root@rgw ~]# firewall-cmd --reload

Add a wildcard to the DNS server that you are using for the gateway as mentioned in the Object Gateway Configuration and Administration Guide.
You can also set up the gateway node for local DNS caching. To do so, execute the following steps:
1. As root, install and setup dnsmasq:
```
[root@rgw ~]# yum install dnsmasq
[root@rgw ~]# echo "address=/.FQDN_OF_GATEWAY_NODE/IP_OF_GATEWAY_NODE" | tee --append /etc/dnsmasq.conf
[root@rgw ~]# systemctl start dnsmasq
[root@rgw ~]# systemctl enable dnsmasq
```
  Replace IP_OF_GATEWAY_NODE and FQDN_OF_GATEWAY_NODE with the IP address and FQDN of the gateway node.
2. As root, stop NetworkManager:
```
[root@rgw ~]# systemctl stop NetworkManager
[root@rgw ~]# systemctl disable NetworkManager
```
3. As root, set the gateway server’s IP as the nameserver:
```
[root@rgw ~]# echo "DNS1=IP_OF_GATEWAY_NODE" | tee --append /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
[root@rgw ~]# echo "IP_OF_GATEWAY_NODE FQDN_OF_GATEWAY_NODE" | tee --append /etc/hosts
[root@rgw ~]# systemctl restart network
[root@rgw ~]# systemctl enable network
[root@rgw ~]# systemctl restart dnsmasq
```
  Replace IP_OF_GATEWAY_NODE and FQDN_OF_GATEWAY_NODE with the IP address and FQDN of the gateway node.
4. Verify subdomain requests:
```
[user@rgw ~]$ ping mybucket.FQDN_OF_GATEWAY_NODE
```
  Replace FQDN_OF_GATEWAY_NODE with the FQDN of the gateway node.
  Warning
  Setting up the gateway server for local DNS caching is for testing purposes only. You won’t be able to access the outside network after doing this. It is strongly recommended to use a proper DNS server for the Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster and gateway node.
Create the radosgw user for S3 access carefully as mentioned in the Object Gateway Configuration and Administration Guide and copy the generated access_key and secret_key. You will need these keys for S3 access and subsequent bucket management tasks.

3.2.5. Accessing the Ceph Object Gateway using Ruby AWS S3

You can use Ruby programming language along with aws-s3 gem for S3 access. Execute the steps mentioned below on the node used for accessing the Ceph Object Gateway server with Ruby AWS::S3.

Prerequisites

        :server            => 'FQDN_OF_GATEWAY_NODE',
        :port           => '8080',
        :access_key_id     => 'MY_ACCESS_KEY',
        :secret_access_key => 'MY_SECRET_KEY'
)

Replace FQDN_OF_GATEWAY_NODE with the FQDN of the Ceph Object Gateway node. Replace MY_ACCESS_KEY and MY_SECRET_KEY with the access_key and secret_key that were generated when you created the radosgw user for S3 access as mentioned in the Red Hat Ceph Storage Object Gateway Configuration and Administration Guide.

Example

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

require 'aws/s3'
require 'resolv-replace'

AWS::S3::Base.establish_connection!(

3.2.7. Accessing the Ceph Object Gateway using PHP

You can use PHP scripts for S3 access. This procedure provides some example PHP scripts to do various tasks, such as deleting a bucket or an object.

Important

The examples given below are tested against php v5.4.16 and aws-sdk v2.8.24.

Prerequisites

Root-level access to a development workstation.
Internet access.

Procedure

Install the php package:
```
[root@dev ~]# yum install php
```
Download the zip archive of aws-sdk for PHP and extract it.

Create a project directory:

[user@dev ~]$ mkdir php_s3
[user@dev ~]$ cd php_s3

Copy the extracted aws directory to the project directory. For example:
```
[user@dev ~]$ cp -r ~/Downloads/aws/ ~/php_s3/
```
Create the connection file:
```
[user@dev ~]$ vim conn.php
```
Paste the following contents in the conn.php file:
Syntax
```
<?php
define('AWS_KEY', 'MY_ACCESS_KEY');
define('AWS_SECRET_KEY', 'MY_SECRET_KEY');
define('HOST', 'FQDN_OF_GATEWAY_NODE');
define('PORT', '8080');

// require the AWS SDK for php library
require '/PATH_TO_AWS/aws-autoloader.php';

use Aws\S3\S3Client;

// Establish connection with host using S3 Client
client = S3Client::factory(array(
    'base_url' => HOST,
    'port' => PORT,
    'key'      => AWS_KEY,
    'secret'   => AWS_SECRET_KEY
));
?>
```
Replace FQDN_OF_GATEWAY_NODE with the FQDN of the gateway node. Replace MY_ACCESS_KEY and MY_SECRET_KEY with the access_key and secret_key that were generated when creating the radosgw user for S3 access as mentioned in the Red Hat Ceph Storage Object Gateway Configuration and Administration Guide. Replace PATH_TO_AWS with the absolute path to the extracted aws directory that you copied to the php project directory.
Save the file and exit the editor.
Run the file:
```
[user@dev ~]$ php -f conn.php | echo $?
```
If you have provided the values correctly in the file, the output of the command will be 0.
Create a new file for creating a bucket:
```
[user@dev ~]$ vim create_bucket.php
```
Paste the following contents into the new file:
Syntax
```
<?php

include 'conn.php';

client->createBucket(array('Bucket' => 'my-new-bucket3'));

?>
```
Save the file and exit the editor.
Run the file:
```
[user@dev ~]$ php -f create_bucket.php
```

Create a new file for listing owned buckets:

[user@dev ~]$ vim list_owned_buckets.php

Paste the following content into the file:

Syntax

<?php

include 'conn.php';

blist = client->listBuckets();
echo "Buckets belonging to " . blist['Owner']['ID'] . ":\n";
foreach (blist['Buckets'] as b) {
    echo "{b['Name']}\t{b['CreationDate']}\n";
}

?>

Save the file and exit the editor.

Run the file:

[user@dev ~]$ php -f list_owned_buckets.php

The output should look similar to this:

my-new-bucket3 2020-01-21 10:33:19 UTC

Create an object by first creating a source file named hello.txt:
```
[user@dev ~]$ echo "Hello World!" > hello.txt
```

Create a new php file:

[user@dev ~]$ vim create_object.php

Paste the following contents into the file:

Syntax

<?php

include 'conn.php';

key         = 'hello.txt';
source_file = './hello.txt';
acl         = 'private';
bucket      = 'my-new-bucket3';
client->upload(bucket, key, fopen(source_file, 'r'), acl);

?>

Save the file and exit the editor.

Run the file:
```
[user@dev ~]$ php -f create_object.php
```
This will create the object hello.txt in bucket my-new-bucket3.

Create a new file for listing a bucket’s content:

[user@dev ~]$ vim list_bucket_content.php

Paste the following content into the file:

Syntax

<?php

include 'conn.php';

o_iter = client->getIterator('ListObjects', array(
    'Bucket' => 'my-new-bucket3'
));
foreach (o_iter as o) {
    echo "{o['Key']}\t{o['Size']}\t{o['LastModified']}\n";
}
?>

Save the file and exit the editor.

Run the file:

[user@dev ~]$ php -f list_bucket_content.php

The output will look similar to this:

hello.txt    12    Fri, 22 Jan 2020 15:54:52 GMT

Create a new file for deleting an empty bucket:
```
[user@dev ~]$ vim del_empty_bucket.php
```
Paste the following contents into the file:
Syntax
```
<?php

include 'conn.php';

client->deleteBucket(array('Bucket' => 'my-new-bucket3'));
?>
```
Save the file and exit the editor.
Run the file:
```
[user@dev ~]$ php -f del_empty_bucket.php | echo $?
```
If the bucket is successfully deleted, the command will return 0 as output.
Note
Edit the create_bucket.php file to create empty buckets, for example, my-new-bucket4, my-new-bucket5. Next, edit the above-mentioned del_empty_bucket.php file accordingly before trying to delete empty buckets.
Important
Deleting a non-empty bucket is currently not supported in PHP 2 and newer versions of aws-sdk.

Create a new file for deleting an object:

[user@dev ~]$ vim delete_object.php

Paste the following contents into the file:

Syntax

<?php

include 'conn.php';

client->deleteObject(array(
    'Bucket' => 'my-new-bucket3',
    'Key'    => 'hello.txt',
));
?>

Save the file and exit the editor.

Run the file:
```
[user@dev ~]$ php -f delete_object.php
```
This will delete the object hello.txt.

3.2.8. Secure Token Service

The Amazon Web Services' Secure Token Service (STS) returns a set of temporary security credentials for authenticating users.

Red Hat Ceph Storage Object Gateway supports a subset of Amazon STS application programming interfaces (APIs) for identity and access management (IAM).

Users first authenticate against STS and receive a short-lived S3 access key and secret key that can be used in subsequent requests.

Red Hat Ceph Storage can authenticate S3 users by integrating with a Single Sign-On by configuring an OIDC provider. This feature enables Object Storage users to authenticate against an enterprise identity provider rather than the local Ceph Object Gateway database. For instance, if the SSO is connected to an enterprise IDP in the backend, Object Storage users can use their enterprise credentials to authenticate and get access to the Ceph Object Gateway S3 endpoint.

By using STS along with the IAM role policy feature, you can create finely tuned authorization policies to control access to your data. This enables you to implement either a Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) or Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) authorization model for your object storage data, giving you complete control over who can access the data.

Simplifies workflow to access S3 resources with STS

The user wants access S3 resources in Red Hat Ceph Storage.
The user needs to authenticate against the SSO provider.
The SSO provider is federated with an IDP and checks if the user credentials are valid, the user gets authenticated and the SSO provides a Token to the user.
Using the Token provided by the SSO, the user accesses the Ceph Object Gateway STS endpoint, asking to assume an IAM role that provides the user with access to S3 resources.
The Red Hat Ceph Storage gateway receives the user token and asks the SSO to validate the token.
Once the SSO validates the token, the user is allowed to assume the role. Through STS, the user is with temporary access and secret keys that give the user access to the S3 resources.
Depending on the policies attached to the IAM role the user has assumed, the user can access a set of S3 resources.
For example, read for bucket A and write to bucket B.

3.2.8.2. Configuring the Secure Token Service

Configure the Secure Token Service (STS) for use with the Ceph Object Gateway by setting the rgw_sts_key, and rgw_s3_auth_use_sts options.

Note

The S3 and STS APIs co-exist in the same namespace, and both can be accessed from the same endpoint in the Ceph Object Gateway.

Prerequisites

A running Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster.
A running Ceph Object Gateway.
Root-level access to a Ceph Manager node.

Procedure

Set the following configuration options for the Ceph Object Gateway client:

Syntax

ceph config set RGW_CLIENT_NAME rgw_sts_key STS_KEY
ceph config set RGW_CLIENT_NAME rgw_s3_auth_use_sts true

The rgw_sts_key is the STS key for encrypting or decrypting the session token and is exactly 16 hex characters.

Important

The STS key needs to be alphanumeric.

Example

[root@mgr ~]# ceph config set client.rgw rgw_sts_key 7f8fd8dd4700mnop
[root@mgr ~]# ceph config set client.rgw rgw_s3_auth_use_sts true

Restart the Ceph Object Gateway for the added key to take effect.
Note
Use the output from the ceph orch ps command, under the NAME column, to get the SERVICE_TYPE.ID information.
1. To restart the Ceph Object Gateway on an individual node in the storage cluster:
  Syntax
```
systemctl restart ceph-CLUSTER_ID@SERVICE_TYPE.ID.service
```
  Example
```
[root@host01 ~]# systemctl restart ceph-c4b34c6f-8365-11ba-dc31-529020a7702d@rgw.realm.zone.host01.gwasto.service
```
2. To restart the Ceph Object Gateways on all nodes in the storage cluster:
  Syntax
```
ceph orch restart SERVICE_TYPE
```
  Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph orch restart rgw
```

Additional Resources

See Secure Token Service application programming interfaces section in the Red Hat Ceph Storage Developer Guide for more details on the STS APIs.
See the The basics of Ceph configuration chapter in the Red Hat Ceph Storage Configuration Guide for more details on using the Ceph configuration database.

3.2.8.3. Creating a user for an OpenID Connect provider

To establish trust between the Ceph Object Gateway and the OpenID Connect Provider create a user entity and a role trust policy.

Prerequisites

User-level access to the Ceph Object Gateway node.
Secure Token Service configured.

Procedure

Create a new Ceph user:

Syntax

radosgw-admin --uid USER_NAME --display-name "DISPLAY_NAME" --access_key USER_NAME --secret SECRET user create

Example

[user@rgw ~]$ radosgw-admin --uid TESTER --display-name "TestUser" --access_key TESTER --secret test123 user create

Configure the Ceph user capabilities:

Syntax

radosgw-admin caps add --uid="USER_NAME" --caps="oidc-provider=*"

Example

[user@rgw ~]$ radosgw-admin caps add --uid="TESTER" --caps="oidc-provider=*"

Add a condition to the role trust policy using the Secure Token Service (STS) API:

Syntax

"{\"Version\":\"2020-01-17\",\"Statement\":[{\"Effect\":\"Allow\",\"Principal\":{\"Federated\":[\"arn:aws:iam:::oidc-provider/IDP_URL\"]},\"Action\":[\"sts:AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity\"],\"Condition\":{\"StringEquals\":{\"IDP_URL:app_id\":\"AUD_FIELD\"\}\}\}\]\}"

Important

The app_id in the syntax example above must match the AUD_FIELD field of the incoming token.

Additional Resources

3.2.8.4. Obtaining a thumbprint of an OpenID Connect provider

Get the OpenID Connect provider’s (IDP) configuration document.

Any SSO that follows the OIDC protocol standards is expected to work with the Ceph Object Gateway. Red Hat has tested with the following SSO providers:

Red Hat Single Sing-on
Keycloak

Prerequisites

Installation of the openssl and curl packages.

Procedure

Get the configuration document from the IDP’s URL:

Syntax

curl -k -v \
     -X GET \
     -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
     "IDP_URL:8000/CONTEXT/realms/REALM/.well-known/openid-configuration" \
   | jq .

Example

[user@client ~]$ curl -k -v \
     -X GET \
     -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
     "http://www.example.com:8000/auth/realms/quickstart/.well-known/openid-configuration" \
   | jq .

Get the IDP certificate:

Syntax

curl -k -v \
     -X GET \
     -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
     "IDP_URL/CONTEXT/realms/REALM/protocol/openid-connect/certs" \
     | jq .

Example

[user@client ~]$ curl -k -v \
     -X GET \
     -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
     "http://www.example.com/auth/realms/quickstart/protocol/openid-connect/certs" \
     | jq .

Note

The x5c cert can be available on the /certs path or in the /jwks path depending on the SSO provider.

Copy the result of the "x5c" response from the previous command and paste it into the certificate.crt file. Include —–BEGIN CERTIFICATE—– at the beginning and —–END CERTIFICATE—– at the end.

Example

Get the certificate thumbprint:

Syntax

openssl x509 -in CERT_FILE -fingerprint -noout

Example

[user@client ~]$ openssl x509 -in certificate.crt -fingerprint -noout
SHA1 Fingerprint=F7:D7:B3:51:5D:D0:D3:19:DD:21:9A:43:A9:EA:72:7A:D6:06:52:87

Remove all the colons from the SHA1 fingerprint and use this as the input for creating the IDP entity in the IAM request.

Verify that the OIDC provider is added to the Ceph Object Gateway.

Example

[root@host01 ~]# aws --endpoint https://cephproxy1.example.com:8443 iam
list-open-id-connect-providers

{
 "OpenIDConnectProviderList": [
 {
 "Arn":
"arn:aws:iam:::oidc-provider/keycloak-sso.apps.ocp.example.com/auth/realms/ceph"
 }
 ]
}

3.2.8.6. Creating IAM roles and policies

Create IAM roles and policies.

Prerequisites

Installation of the openssl and curl packages.
Secure Token Service configured.
User created for an OIDC provider.
Thumbprint of an OIDC obtained.
The OIDC provider in Ceph Object Gateway registered.

Procedure

Retrieve and validate JWT token.

Example

[root@host01 ~]# curl -k -q -L -X POST
"https://keycloak-sso.apps.example.com/auth/realms/ceph/protocol/openid-connect/
token" \
-H 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
--data-urlencode 'client_id=ceph' \
--data-urlencode 'grant_type=password' \
--data-urlencode 'client_secret=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' \
--data-urlencode 'scope=openid' \
--data-urlencode "username=SSOUSERNAME" \
--data-urlencode "password=SSOPASSWORD"

Verify the token.

Example

[root@host01 ~]# cat check_token.sh
USERNAME=$1
PASSWORD=$2
KC_CLIENT="ceph"

       ]
     },
     "Action": [
       "sts:AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity"
     ],
     "Condition": {
       "StringLike": { "keycloak-sso.apps.example.com/auth/realms/ceph:sub":"ceph" }
     }
   }
 ]
}

Create a Ceph Object Gateway role using the JSON file.

Example

Run the script.

Example

[root@host01 ~]# source ./test-assume-role.sh s3admin passw0rd rgwadmins
[root@host01 ~]# aws s3 mb s3://testbucket
[root@host01 ~]# aws s3 ls

3.2.9. Configuring and using STS Lite with Keystone (Technology Preview)

The Amazon Secure Token Service (STS) and S3 APIs co-exist in the same namespace. The STS options can be configured in conjunction with the Keystone options.

Note

Both S3 and STS APIs can be accessed using the same endpoint in Ceph Object Gateway.

Prerequisites

Red Hat Ceph Storage 5.0 or higher.
A running Ceph Object Gateway.
Installation of the Boto Python module, version 3 or higher.
Root-level access to a Ceph Manager node.
User-level access to an OpenStack node.

Procedure

Set the following configuration options for the Ceph Object Gateway client:

Syntax

ceph config set RGW_CLIENT_NAME rgw_sts_key STS_KEY
ceph config set RGW_CLIENT_NAME rgw_s3_auth_use_sts true

The rgw_sts_key is the STS key for encrypting or decrypting the session token and is exactly 16 hex characters.

Important

The STS key needs to be alphanumeric.

Example

[root@mgr ~]# ceph config set client.rgw rgw_sts_key 7f8fd8dd4700mnop
[root@mgr ~]# ceph config set client.rgw rgw_s3_auth_use_sts true

Generate the EC2 credentials on the OpenStack node:

Example

[user@osp ~]$ openstack ec2 credentials create

+------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
| Field      | Value                                                  |
+------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
| access     | b924dfc87d454d15896691182fdeb0ef                       |
| links      | {u'self': u'http://192.168.0.15/identity/v3/users/     |
|            | 40a7140e424f493d8165abc652dc731c/credentials/          |
|            | OS-EC2/b924dfc87d454d15896691182fdeb0ef'}              |
| project_id | c703801dccaf4a0aaa39bec8c481e25a                       |
| secret     | 6a2142613c504c42a94ba2b82147dc28                       |
| trust_id   | None                                                   |
| user_id    | 40a7140e424f493d8165abc652dc731c                       |
+------------+--------------------------------------------------------+

Use the generated credentials to get back a set of temporary security credentials using GetSessionToken API:

Example

import boto3

access_key = b924dfc87d454d15896691182fdeb0ef
secret_key = 6a2142613c504c42a94ba2b82147dc28

client = boto3.client('sts',
aws_access_key_id=access_key,
aws_secret_access_key=secret_key,
endpoint_url=https://www.example.com/rgw,
region_name='',
)

response = client.get_session_token(
    DurationSeconds=43200
)

Obtaining the temporary credentials can be used for making S3 calls:

Example

s3client = boto3.client('s3',
  aws_access_key_id = response['Credentials']['AccessKeyId'],
  aws_secret_access_key = response['Credentials']['SecretAccessKey'],
  aws_session_token = response['Credentials']['SessionToken'],
  endpoint_url=https://www.example.com/s3,
  region_name='')

bucket = s3client.create_bucket(Bucket='my-new-shiny-bucket')
response = s3client.list_buckets()
for bucket in response["Buckets"]:
  print "{name}\t{created}".format(
    name = bucket['Name'],
    created = bucket['CreationDate'],
  )

Create a new S3Access role and configure a policy.

Assign a user with administrative CAPS:

Syntax

radosgw-admin caps add --uid="USER" --caps="roles=*"

Example

[root@mgr ~]# radosgw-admin caps add --uid="gwadmin" --caps="roles=*"

Create the S3Access role:

Syntax

radosgw-admin role create --role-name=ROLE_NAME --path=PATH --assume-role-policy-doc=TRUST_POLICY_DOC

Example

[root@mgr ~]# radosgw-admin role create --role-name=S3Access --path=/application_abc/component_xyz/ --assume-role-policy-doc=\{\"Version\":\"2012-10-17\",\"Statement\":\[\{\"Effect\":\"Allow\",\"Principal\":\{\"AWS\":\[\"arn:aws:iam:::user/TESTER\"\]\},\"Action\":\[\"sts:AssumeRole\"\]\}\]\}

Attach a permission policy to the S3Access role:

Syntax

radosgw-admin role-policy put --role-name=ROLE_NAME --policy-name=POLICY_NAME --policy-doc=PERMISSION_POLICY_DOC

Example

[root@mgr ~]# radosgw-admin role-policy put --role-name=S3Access --policy-name=Policy --policy-doc=\{\"Version\":\"2012-10-17\",\"Statement\":\[\{\"Effect\":\"Allow\",\"Action\":\[\"s3:*\"\],\"Resource\":\"arn:aws:s3:::example_bucket\"\}\]\}

Now another user can assume the role of the gwadmin user. For example, the gwuser user can assume the permissions of the gwadmin user.
Make a note of the assuming user’s access_key and secret_key values.
Example
```
[root@mgr ~]# radosgw-admin user info --uid=gwuser | grep -A1 access_key
```

Use the AssumeRole API call, providing the access_key and secret_key values from the assuming user:

Example

import boto3

access_key = 11BS02LGFB6AL6H1ADMW
secret_key = vzCEkuryfn060dfee4fgQPqFrncKEIkh3ZcdOANY

client = boto3.client('sts',
aws_access_key_id=access_key,
aws_secret_access_key=secret_key,
endpoint_url=https://www.example.com/rgw,
region_name='',
)

response = client.assume_role(
RoleArn='arn:aws:iam:::role/application_abc/component_xyz/S3Access',
RoleSessionName='Bob',
DurationSeconds=3600
)

Important

The AssumeRole API requires the S3Access role.

3.2.10. Working around the limitations of using STS Lite with Keystone (Technology Preview)

A limitation with Keystone is that it does not supports Secure Token Service (STS) requests. Another limitation is the payload hash is not included with the request. To work around these two limitations the Boto authentication code must be modified.

Prerequisites

A running Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster, version 5.0 or higher.
A running Ceph Object Gateway.
Installation of Boto Python module, version 3 or higher.

Procedure

Open and edit Boto’s auth.py file.

Add the following four lines to the code block:

class SigV4Auth(BaseSigner):
  """
  Sign a request with Signature V4.
  """
  REQUIRES_REGION = True

  def __init__(self, credentials, service_name, region_name):
      self.credentials = credentials

Prerequisites

A running Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster.
A RESTful client.

3.3.1. S3 create bucket notifications

Create bucket notifications at the bucket level. The notification configuration has the Red Hat Ceph Storage Object Gateway S3 events, ObjectCreated, ObjectRemoved, and ObjectLifecycle:Expiration. These need to be published and the destination to send the bucket notifications. Bucket notifications are S3 operations.

To create a bucket notification for s3:objectCreate, s3:objectRemove and s3:ObjectLifecycle:Expiration events, use PUT:

Example

client.put_bucket_notification_configuration(
   Bucket=bucket_name,
   NotificationConfiguration={
       'TopicConfigurations': [
           {
               'Id': notification_name,
               'TopicArn': topic_arn,
               'Events': ['s3:ObjectCreated:*', 's3:ObjectRemoved:*', 's3:ObjectLifecycle:Expiration:*']
           }]})

Important

Red Hat supports ObjectCreate events, such as put, post, multipartUpload, and copy. Red Hat also supports ObjectRemove events, such as object_delete and s3_multi_object_delete.

Note

Notification deletion is an extension to the S3 notification API. Any defined notifications on a bucket are deleted when the bucket is deleted. Deleting an unknown notification for example double delete, is not considered an error.

To delete a specific or all notifications use DELETE:

Syntax

DELETE /BUCKET?notification=NOTIFICATION_ID HTTP/1.1

Example

DELETE /testbucket?notification=testnotificationID HTTP/1.1

Request Entities

notification-id

Description: Name of the notification. All notifications on the bucket are deleted if the notification ID is not provided.
Type: String

HTTP response

404

Status Code: NoSuchBucket
Description: The bucket does not exist.

3.3.4. Accessing bucket host names

There are two different modes of accessing the buckets. The first, and preferred method identifies the bucket as the top-level directory in the URI.

Example

GET /mybucket HTTP/1.1
Host: cname.domain.com

The second method identifies the bucket via a virtual bucket host name.

Example

GET / HTTP/1.1
Host: mybucket.cname.domain.com

Tip

Red Hat prefers the first method, because the second method requires expensive domain certification and DNS wild cards.

3.3.5. S3 list buckets

Bucket names can be between 3 and 63 characters long.
Bucket names must not contain uppercase characters or underscores.
Bucket names must start with a lowercase letter or number.
Bucket names can contain a dash (-).
Bucket names must be a series of one or more labels. Adjacent labels are separated by a single period (.). Bucket names can contain lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens. Each label must start and end with a lowercase letter or a number.

Note

The above constraints are relaxed if rgw_relaxed_s3_bucket_names is set to true. The bucket names must still be unique, cannot be formatted as IP address, and can contain letters, numbers, periods, dashes, and underscores of up to 255 characters long.

Syntax

PUT /BUCKET HTTP/1.1

409

Status Code: BucketAlreadyExists
Description: Bucket already exists under different user’s ownership.

3.3.8. S3 put bucket website

The put bucket website API sets the configuration of the website that is specified in the website subresource. To configure a bucket as a website, the website subresource can be added on the bucket.

Note

Put operation requires S3:PutBucketWebsite permission. By default, only the bucket owner can configure the website attached to a bucket.

Syntax

PUT /BUCKET?website-configuration=HTTP/1.1

Example

PUT /testbucket?website-configuration=HTTP/1.1

Additional Resources

For more information about this API call, see S3 API.

3.3.9. S3 get bucket website

The get bucket website API retrieves the configuration of the website that is specified in the website subresource.

Note

Get operation requires the S3:GetBucketWebsite permission. By default, only the bucket owner can read the bucket website configuration.

Syntax

GET /BUCKET?website-configuration=HTTP/1.1

Example

GET /testbucket?website-configuration=HTTP/1.1

Additional Resources

For more information about this API call, see S3 API.

3.3.10. S3 delete bucket website

The delete bucket website API removes the website configuration for a bucket.

Syntax

DELETE /BUCKET?website-configuration=HTTP/1.1

Example

DELETE /testbucket?website-configuration=HTTP/1.1

Additional Resources

Example

DELETE /testbucket?replication HTTP/1.1

3.3.14. S3 delete a bucket

Deletes a bucket. You can reuse bucket names following a successful bucket removal.

Syntax

DELETE /BUCKET HTTP/1.1
Host: cname.domain.com

Authorization: AWS ACCESS_KEY:HASH_OF_HEADER_AND_SECRET

HTTP Response

204

Status Code: No Content
Description: Bucket removed.

3.3.15. S3 bucket lifecycle

You can use a bucket lifecycle configuration to manage your objects so they are stored effectively throughout their lifetime. The S3 API in the Ceph Object Gateway supports a subset of the AWS bucket lifecycle actions:

Expiration: This defines the lifespan of objects within a bucket. It takes the number of days the object should live or expiration date, at which point Ceph Object Gateway will delete the object. If the bucket doesn’t enable versioning, Ceph Object Gateway will delete the object permanently. If the bucket enables versioning, Ceph Object Gateway will create a delete marker for the current version, and then delete the current version.
NoncurrentVersionExpiration: This defines the lifespan of noncurrent object versions within a bucket. To use this feature, you must enable bucket versioning. It takes the number of days a noncurrent object should live, at which point Ceph Object Gateway will delete the noncurrent object.
NewerNoncurrentVersions: Specifies how many noncurrent object versions to retain. You can specify up to 100 noncurrent versions to retain. If the specified number to retain is more than 100, additional noncurrent versions are deleted.
AbortIncompleteMultipartUpload: This defines the number of days an incomplete multipart upload should live before it is aborted.
BlockPublicPolicy reject: This action is for public access block. It calls PUT access point policy and PUT bucket policy that are made through the access point if the specified policy (for either the access point or the underlying bucket) allows public access. The Amazon S3 Block Public Access feature is available in Red Hat Ceph Storage 5.x/ Ceph Pacific versions. It provides settings for access points, buckets, and accounts to help you manage public access to Amazon S3 resources. By default, new buckets, access points, and objects do not allow public access. However, you can modify bucket policies, access point policies, or object permissions to allow public access. S3 Block Public Access settings override these policies and permissions so that you can limit public access to these resources.

The lifecycle configuration contains one or more rules using the <Rule> element.

Example

<LifecycleConfiguration>
    <Rule>
      <Prefix/>
      <Status>Enabled</Status>
      <Expiration>
        <Days>10</Days>
      </Expiration>
    </Rule>
</LifecycleConfiguration>

A lifecycle rule can apply to all or a subset of objects in a bucket based on the <Filter> element that you specify in the lifecycle rule. You can specify a filter in several ways:

Key prefixes
Object tags
Both key prefix and one or more object tags

Key prefixes

You can apply a lifecycle rule to a subset of objects based on the key name prefix. For example, specifying <keypre/> would apply to objects that begin with keypre/:

<LifecycleConfiguration>
    <Rule>
        <Status>Enabled</Status>
        <Filter>
           <Prefix>keypre/</Prefix>
        </Filter>
    </Rule>
</LifecycleConfiguration>

You can also apply different lifecycle rules to objects with different key prefixes:

<LifecycleConfiguration>
    <Rule>
        <Status>Enabled</Status>
        <Filter>
           <Prefix>keypre/</Prefix>
        </Filter>
    </Rule>
    <Rule>
        <Status>Enabled</Status>
        <Filter>
           <Prefix>mypre/</Prefix>
        </Filter>
    </Rule>
</LifecycleConfiguration>

Object tags

You can apply a lifecycle rule to only objects with a specific tag using the <Key> and <Value> elements:

<LifecycleConfiguration>
    <Rule>
        <Status>Enabled</Status>
        <Filter>
           <Tag>
              <Key>key</Key>
              <Value>value</Value>
           </Tag>
        </Filter>
    </Rule>
</LifecycleConfiguration>

Both prefix and one or more tags

In a lifecycle rule, you can specify a filter based on both the key prefix and one or more tags. They must be wrapped in the <And> element. A filter can have only one prefix, and zero or more tags:

<LifecycleConfiguration>
    <Rule>
        <Status>Enabled</Status>
        <Filter>
          <And>
             <Prefix>key-prefix</Prefix>
             <Tag>
                <Key>key1</Key>
                <Value>value1</Value>
             </Tag>
             <Tag>
                <Key>key2</Key>
                <Value>value2</Value>
             </Tag>
              ...
          </And>
        </Filter>
    </Rule>
</LifecycleConfiguration>

3.3.30. S3 bucket policies

The Ceph Object Gateway supports a subset of the Amazon S3 policy language applied to buckets.

Creation and Removal

Ceph Object Gateway manages S3 Bucket policies through standard S3 operations rather than using the radosgw-admin CLI tool.

Administrators may use the s3cmd command to set or delete a policy.

Example

$ cat > examplepol
{
  "Version": "2012-10-17",
  "Statement": [{
    "Effect": "Allow",
    "Principal": {"AWS": ["arn:aws:iam::usfolks:user/fred"]},
    "Action": "s3:PutObjectAcl",
    "Resource": [
      "arn:aws:s3:::happybucket/*"
    ]
  }]
}

$ s3cmd setpolicy examplepol s3://happybucket
$ s3cmd delpolicy s3://happybucket

Limitations

Ceph Object Gateway only supports the following S3 actions:

s3:AbortMultipartUpload
s3:CreateBucket
s3:DeleteBucketPolicy
s3:DeleteBucket
s3:DeleteBucketWebsite
s3:DeleteBucketReplication
s3:DeleteReplicationConfiguration
s3:DeleteObject
s3:DeleteObjectVersion
s3:GetBucketAcl
s3:GetBucketCORS
s3:GetBucketLocation
s3:GetBucketPolicy
s3:GetBucketRequestPayment
s3:GetBucketVersioning
s3:GetBucketWebsite
s3:GetBucketReplication
s3:GetReplicationConfiguration
s3:GetLifecycleConfiguration
s3:GetObjectAcl
s3:GetObject
s3:GetObjectTorrent
s3:GetObjectVersionAcl
s3:GetObjectVersion
s3:GetObjectVersionTorrent
s3:ListAllMyBuckets
s3:ListBucketMultiPartUploads
s3:ListBucket
s3:ListBucketVersions
s3:ListMultipartUploadParts
s3:PutBucketAcl
s3:PutBucketCORS
s3:PutBucketPolicy
s3:PutBucketRequestPayment
s3:PutBucketVersioning
s3:PutBucketWebsite
s3:PutBucketReplication
s3:PutReplicationConfiguration
s3:PutLifecycleConfiguration
s3:PutObjectAcl
s3:PutObject
s3:PutObjectVersionAcl

Note

Ceph Object Gateway does not support setting policies on users, groups, or roles.

The Ceph Object Gateway uses the RGW tenant identifier in place of the Amazon twelve-digit account ID. Ceph Object Gateway administrators who want to use policies between Amazon Web Service (AWS) S3 and Ceph Object Gateway S3 will have to use the Amazon account ID as the tenant ID when creating users.

With AWS S3, all tenants share a single namespace. By contrast, Ceph Object Gateway gives every tenant its own namespace of buckets. At present, Ceph Object Gateway clients trying to access a bucket belonging to another tenant MUST address it as tenant:bucket in the S3 request.

In the AWS, a bucket policy can grant access to another account, and that account owner can then grant access to individual users with user permissions. Since Ceph Object Gateway does not yet support user, role, and group permissions, account owners will need to grant access directly to individual users.

Important

Granting an entire account access to a bucket grants access to ALL users in that account.

Bucket policies do NOT support string interpolation.

Ceph Object Gateway supports the following condition keys:

aws:CurrentTime
aws:EpochTime
aws:PrincipalType
aws:Referer
aws:SecureTransport
aws:SourceIp
aws:UserAgent
aws:username

Ceph Object Gateway ONLY supports the following condition keys for the ListBucket action:

s3:prefix
s3:delimiter
s3:max-keys

Impact on Swift

Ceph Object Gateway provides no functionality to set bucket policies under the Swift API. However, bucket policies that are set with the S3 API govern Swift and S3 operations.

Ceph Object Gateway matches Swift credentials against principals that are specified in a policy.

3.3.31. S3 get the request payment configuration on a bucket

Uses the requestPayment subresource to return the request payment configuration of a bucket. The user needs to be the bucket owner or to have been granted READ_ACP permission on the bucket.

Add the requestPayment subresource to the bucket request as shown below.

Syntax

GET /BUCKET?requestPayment HTTP/1.1
Host: cname.domain.com

Authorization: AWS ACCESS_KEY:HASH_OF_HEADER_AND_SECRET

3.3.32. S3 set the request payment configuration on a bucket

Uses the requestPayment subresource to set the request payment configuration of a bucket. By default, the bucket owner pays for downloads from the bucket. This configuration parameter enables the bucket owner to specify that the person requesting the download will be charged for the request and the data download from the bucket.

Add the requestPayment subresource to the bucket request as shown below.

Syntax

PUT /BUCKET?requestPayment HTTP/1.1
Host: cname.domain.com

Request Entities

Payer

Description: Specifies who pays for the download and request fees.
Type: Enum

RequestPaymentConfiguration

Description: A container for Payer.
Type: Container

3.3.33. Multi-tenant bucket operations

When a client application accesses buckets, it always operates with the credentials of a particular user. In Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster, every user belongs to a tenant. Consequently, every bucket operation has an implicit tenant in its context if no tenant is specified explicitly. Thus multi-tenancy is completely backward compatible with previous releases, as long as the referred buckets and referring user belong to the same tenant.

Extensions employed to specify an explicit tenant differ according to the protocol and authentication system used.

In the following example, a colon character separates tenant and bucket. Thus a sample URL would be:

https://rgw.domain.com/tenant:bucket

By contrast, a simple Python example separates the tenant and bucket in the bucket method itself:

Example

from boto.s3.connection import S3Connection, OrdinaryCallingFormat
  c = S3Connection(
    aws_access_key_id="TESTER",
    aws_secret_access_key="test123",
    host="rgw.domain.com",
    calling_format = OrdinaryCallingFormat()
  )
  bucket = c.get_bucket("tenant:bucket")

Note

It’s not possible to use S3-style subdomains using multi-tenancy, since host names cannot contain colons or any other separators that are not already valid in bucket names. Using a period creates an ambiguous syntax. Therefore, the bucket-in-URL-path format has to be used with multi-tenancy.

Additional Resources

See the Multi Tenancy section under User Management in the Red Hat Ceph Storage Object Gateway Guide for additional details.

3.3.34. S3 Block Public Access

You can use the S3 Block Public Access feature to set buckets and users to help you manage public access to Red Hat Ceph Storage object storage S3 resources.

Using this feature, bucket policies, access point policies, and object permissions can be overridden to allow public access. By default, new buckets, access points, and objects do not allow public access.

The S3 API in the Ceph Object Gateway supports a subset of the AWS public access settings:

BlockPublicPolicy: This defines the setting to allow users to manage access point and bucket policies. This setting does not allow the users to publicly share the bucket or the objects it contains. Existing access point and bucket policies are not affected by enabling this setting. Setting this option to TRUE causes the S3:
- To reject calls to PUT Bucket policy.
- To reject calls to PUT access point policy for all of the bucket’s same-account access points.

Important

Apply this setting at the user level so that users cannot alter a specific bucket’s block public access setting.

Note

The TRUE setting only works if the specified policy allows public access.

RestrictPublicBuckets: This defines the setting to restrict access to a bucket or access point with public policy. The restriction applies to only AWS service principals and authorized users within the bucket owner’s account and access point owner’s account. This blocks cross-account access to the access point or bucket, except for the cases specified, while still allowing users within the account to manage the access points or buckets. Enabling this setting does not affect existing access point or bucket policies. It only defines that Amazon S3 blocks public and cross-account access derived from any public access point or bucket policy, including non-public delegation to specific accounts.

Note

Access control lists (ACLs) are not currently supported by Red Hat Ceph Storage.

Bucket policies are assumed to be public unless defined otherwise. To block public access a bucket policy must give access only to fixed values for one or more of the following:

Note

A fixed value does not contain a wildcard (*) or an AWS Identity and Access Management Policy Variable.

An AWS principal, user, role, or service principal
A set of Classless Inter-Domain Routings (CIDRs), using aws:SourceIp
aws:SourceArn
aws:SourceVpc
aws:SourceVpce
aws:SourceOwner
aws:SourceAccount
s3:x-amz-server-side-encryption-aws-kms-key-id
aws:userid, outside the pattern AROLEID:*
s3:DataAccessPointArn
Note
When used in a bucket policy, this value can contain a wildcard for the access point name without rendering the policy public, as long as the account ID is fixed.
s3:DataAccessPointPointAccount

The following example policy is considered public.

Example

{
		"Principal": "*",
		"Resource": "*",
		"Action": "s3:PutObject",
		"Effect": "Allow",
		"Condition": { "StringLike": {"aws:SourceVpc": "vpc-*"}}
	}

To make a policy non-public, include any of the condition keys with a fixed value.

Example

{
		"Principal": "*",
		"Resource": "*",
		"Action": "s3:PutObject",
		"Effect": "Allow",
		"Condition": {"StringEquals": {"aws:SourceVpc": "vpc-91237329"}}
	}

3.4.26. S3 Hadoop interoperability

For data analytics applications that require Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) access, the Ceph Object Gateway can be accessed using the Apache S3A connector for Hadoop. The S3A connector is an open-source tool that presents S3 compatible object storage as an HDFS file system with HDFS file system read and write semantics to the applications while data is stored in the Ceph Object Gateway.

Ceph Object Gateway is fully compatible with the S3A connector that ships with Hadoop 2.7.3.

Additional Resources

See the Red Hat Ceph Storage Object Gateway Guide for details on multi-tenancy.

3.5. S3 select operations

As a developer, you can run S3 select to accelerate throughput. Users can run S3 select queries directly without a mediator.

There are three S3 select workflow - CSV, Apache Parquet (Parquet), and JSON that provide S3 select operations with CSV, Parquet, and JSON objects:

A CSV file stores tabular data in plain text format. Each line of the file is a data record.
Parquet is an open source, column-oriented data file format designed for efficient data storage and retrieval. It provides highly efficient data compression and encoding schemes with enhanced performance to handle complex data in bulk. Parquet enables the S3 select-engine to skip columns and chunks, thereby reducing IOPS dramatically (contrary to CSV and JSON format).
JSON is a format structure. The S3 select engine enables the use of SQL statements on top of the JSON format input data using the JSON reader, enabling the scanning of highly nested and complex JSON formatted data.

For example, a CSV, Parquet, or JSON S3 object with several gigabytes of data allows the user to extract a single column which is filtered by another column using the following query:

Example

select customerid from s3Object where age>30 and age<65;

Currently, the S3 object must retrieve data from the Ceph OSD through the Ceph Object Gateway before filtering and extracting data. There is improved performance when the object is large and the query is more specific. The Parquet format can be processed more efficiently than CSV.

Prerequisites

A running Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster.
A RESTful client.
A S3 user created with user access.

3.5.1. S3 select content from an object

The select object content API filters the content of an object through the structured query language (SQL). See the Metadata collected by inventory section in the AWS Systems Manager User Guide for an example of the description of what should reside in the inventory object. The inventory content impacts the type of queries that should be run against that inventory. The number of SQL statements that potentially could provide essential information is large, but S3 select is an SQL-like utility and therefore, some operators are not supported, such as group-by and join.

For CSV only, you must specify the data serialization format as comma-separated values of the object to retrieve the specified content. Parquet has no delimiter because it is in binary format. Amazon Web Services (AWS) command-line interface (CLI) select object content uses the CSV or Parquet format to parse object data into records and returns only the records specified in the query.

You must specify the data serialization format for the response. You must have s3:GetObject permission for this operation.

Note

The InputSerialization element describes the format of the data in the object that is being queried. Objects can be in CSV or Parquet format.
The OutputSerialization element is part of the AWS-CLI user client and describes how the output data is formatted. Ceph has implemented the server client for AWS-CLI and therefore, provides the same output according to OutputSerialization which currently is CSV only.
The format of the InputSerialization does not need to match the format of the OutputSerialization. So, for example, you can specify Parquet in the InputSerialization and CSV in the OutputSerialization.

Syntax

POST /BUCKET/KEY?select&select-type=2 HTTP/1.1\r\n

Example

POST /testbucket/sample1csv?select&select-type=2 HTTP/1.1\r\n

3.5.3. S3 alias programming construct

Alias programming construct is an essential part of the s3 select language because it enables better programming with objects that contain many columns or complex queries. When a statement with alias construct is parsed, it replaces the alias with a reference to the right projection column and on query execution, the reference is evaluated like any other expression. Alias maintains result-cache that is if an alias is used more than once, the same expression is not evaluated and the same result is returned because the result from the cache is used. Currently, Red Hat supports the column alias.

Example

select int(_1) as a1, int(_2) as a2 , (a1+a2) as a3 from s3object where a3>100 and a3<300;")

3.5.4. S3 parsing explained

The S3 select engine has parsers for all three file formats - CSV, Parquet, and JSON which separate the commands into more processable components, which are then attached to tags that define each component.

3.5.4.1. S3 CSV parsing

The CSV definitions with input serialization uses these default values:

Use {\n}` for row-delimiter.
Use {“} for quote.
Use {\} for escape characters.

The csv-header-info is parsed upon USE appearing in the AWS-CLI; this is the first row in the input object containing the schema. Currently, output serialization and compression-type is not supported. The S3 select engine has a CSV parser which parses S3-objects:

Each row ends with a row-delimiter.
The field-separator separates the adjacent columns.
The successive field separator defines the NULL column.
The quote-character overrides the field-separator; that is, the field separator is any character between the quotes.
The escape character disables any special character except the row delimiter.

The following are examples of CSV parsing rules:

Table 3.5. CSV parsing
Feature	Description	Input (Tokens)
`NULL`	Successive field delimiter	`,,1,,2, =⇒ {null}{null}{1}{null}{2}{null}`
`QUOTE`	The quote character overrides the field delimiter.	`11,22,”a,b,c,d”,last =⇒ {11}{22}{“a,b,c,d”}{last}`
`Escape`	The escape character overrides the meta-character.	A container for the object owner’s `ID` and `DisplayName`
`row delimiter`	There is no closed quote; row delimiter is the closing line.	`11,22,a=”str,44,55,66 =⇒ {11}{22}{a=”str,44,55,66}`
`csv header info`	FileHeaderInfo tag	USE value means each token on the first line is the column-name; IGNORE value means to skip the first line.

3.5.4.2. S3 Parquet parsing

Apache Parquet is an open-source, columnar data file format designed for efficient data storage and retrieval.

The S3 select engine’s Parquet parser parses S3-objects as follows:

Example

4-byte magic number "PAR1"
<Column 1 Chunk 1 + Column Metadata>
<Column 2 Chunk 1 + Column Metadata>
...
<Column N Chunk 1 + Column Metadata>
<Column 1 Chunk 2 + Column Metadata>
<Column 2 Chunk 2 + Column Metadata>
...
<Column N Chunk 2 + Column Metadata>
...
<Column 1 Chunk M + Column Metadata>
<Column 2 Chunk M + Column Metadata>
...
<Column N Chunk M + Column Metadata>
File Metadata
4-byte length in bytes of file metadata
4-byte magic number "PAR1"

In the above example, there are N columns in this table, split into M row groups. The file metadata contains the locations of all the column metadata start locations.
Metadata is written after the data to allow for single pass writing.
All the column chunks can be found in the file metadata which should later be read sequentially.
The format is explicitly designed to separate the metadata from the data. This allows splitting columns into multiple files, as well as having a single metadata file reference multiple parquet files.

3.5.4.3. S3 JSON parsing

JSON document enables nesting values within objects or arrays without limitations. When querying a specific value in a JSON document in the S3 select engine, the location of the value is specified through a path in the SELECT statement.

The generic structure of a JSON document does not have a row and column structure like CSV and Parquet. Instead, it is the SQL statement itself that defines the rows and columns when querying a JSON document.

The S3 select engine’s JSON parser parses S3-objects as follows:

The FROM clause in the SELECT statement defines the row boundaries.
A row in a JSON document is similar to how the row delimiter is used to define rows for CSV objects, and how row groups are used to define rows for Parquet objects

Consider the following example:

Example

{
    "firstName": "Joe",
    "lastName": "Jackson",
    "gender": "male",
    "age": "twenty"
},

{
    "firstName": "Joe_2",
    "lastName": "Jackson_2",
    "gender": "male",
    "age": 21
},

"phoneNumbers":
[
    { "type": "home1", "number": "734928_1","addr": 11 },
    { "type": "home2", "number": "734928_2","addr": 22 }
],

"key_after_array": "XXX",

"description" :
{
    "main_desc" : "value_1",
    "second_desc" : "value_2"
}

# the from-clause define a single row.
# _1 points to root object level.
# _1.age appears twice in Documnet-row, the last value is used for the operation.
query = "select _1.firstname,_1.key_after_array,_1.age+4,_1.description.main_desc,_1.description.second_desc from s3object[*].aa.bb.cc;";

expected_result = Joe_2,XXX,25,value_1,value_2

The statement instructs the reader to search for the path aa.bb.cc and defines the row boundaries based on the occurrence of this path.
A row begins when the reader encounters the path, and it ends when the reader exits the innermost part of the path, which in this case is the object cc.

3.5.5. Integrating Ceph Object Gateway with Trino

Integrate the Ceph Object Gateway with Trino, an important utility that enables the user to run SQL queries 9x faster on S3 objects.

Following are some benefits of using Trino:

Trino is a complete SQL engine.
Pushes down S3 select requests wherein the Trino engine identifies part of the SQL statement that is cost effective to run on the server-side.
uses the optimization rules of Ceph/S3select to enhance performance.
Leverages Red Hat Ceph Storage scalability and divides the original object into multiple equal parts, performs S3 select requests, and merges the request.

Important

If the s3select syntax does not work while querying through trino, use the SQL syntax.

Prerequisites

A running Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster with Ceph Object Gateway installed.
Docker or Podman installed.
Buckets created.
Objects are uploaded.

Procedure

Deploy Trino and hive.

Example

[cephuser@host01 ~]$ git clone https://github.com/ceph/s3select.git
[cephuser@host01 ~]$ cd s3select

Modify the hms_trino.yaml file with S3 endpoint, access key, and secret key.

Example

[cephuser@host01 s3select]$ cat container/trino/hms_trino.yaml
version: '3'
services:
  hms:
    image: galsl/hms:dev
    container_name: hms
    environment:
      # S3_ENDPOINT the CEPH/RGW end-point-url
      - S3_ENDPOINT=http://rgw_ip:port
      - S3_ACCESS_KEY=abc
      - S3_SECRET_KEY=abc
    # the container starts with booting the hive metastore
    command: sh -c '. ~/.bashrc; start_hive_metastore'
    ports:
      - 9083:9083
    networks:
      - trino_hms

  trino:
    image: trinodb/trino:405
    container_name: trino
    volumes:
      # the trino directory contains the necessary configuration
      - ./trino:/etc/trino
    ports:
      - 8080:8080
    networks:
      - trino_hms

networks:
  trino_hm

Modify the hive.properties file with S3 endpoint, access key, and secret key.

Example

[cephuser@host01 s3select]$ cat container/trino/trino/catalog/hive.properties
connector.name=hive
hive.metastore.uri=thrift://hms:9083

#hive.metastore.warehouse.dir=s3a://hive/

hive.allow-drop-table=true
hive.allow-rename-table=true
hive.allow-add-column=true
hive.allow-drop-column=true
hive.allow-rename-column=true

hive.non-managed-table-writes-enabled=true
hive.s3select-pushdown.enabled=true
hive.s3.aws-access-key=abc
hive.s3.aws-secret-key=abc

# should modify per s3-endpoint-url
hive.s3.endpoint=http://rgw_ip:port
#hive.s3.max-connections=1
#hive.s3select-pushdown.max-connections=1

hive.s3.connect-timeout=100s
hive.s3.socket-timeout=100s
hive.max-splits-per-second=10000
hive.max-split-size=128MB

Start a Trino container to integrate Ceph Object Gateway.

Example

[cephuser@host01 s3select]$ sudo docker compose -f ./container/trino/hms_trino.yaml up -d

Verify integration.

Example

[cephuser@host01 s3select]$ sudo docker exec -it trino /bin/bash
trino@66f753905e82:/$ trino
trino> create schema hive.csvbkt1schema;
trino> create table hive.csvbkt1schema.polariondatacsv(c1 varchar,c2 varchar, c3 varchar, c4 varchar, c5 varchar, c6 varchar, c7 varchar, c8 varchar, c9 varchar) WITH ( external_location = 's3a://csvbkt1/',format = 'CSV');
trino> select * from hive.csvbkt1schema.polariondatacsv;

Note

The external location must point to the bucket name or a directory, and not the end of a file.
