Hello SHYAMALA GOWRI,
Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A and thank you for posting your questions here.
Problem
Sequel to your questions, I understand that you are encountering an issue while attempting to connect to Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 (ADLS Gen2) from a local Spark environment on a Mac. You provided code snippets and error messages, indicating your attempts to configure Spark session properties for ADLS Gen2 connectivity and the inclusion of relevant JAR files. However, despite their efforts, they are unable to resolve the issue.
Question
Your question was that you want to know:
Is there any fs.azure.sas.token.provider.type
that comes with any azure jar's that i can use for abfss connectivity from my local spark
Scenarios
You are working on a project that involves processing data stored in Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 (ADLS Gen2) using Apache Spark and running Spark locally on his Mac for development and testing purposes. To connect Spark to ADLS Gen2, you need to use Shared Access Signature (SAS) token authentication. You have written Scala code to configure the Spark session with the necessary properties for ADLS Gen2 connectivity, including setting the SAS token provider class. You also included relevant JAR files (hadoop-azure-3.3.3.jar, hadoop-azure-datalake-3.3.3.jar, etc.) in the Spark application's classpath. However, when you execute the Spark job, he encounters an error indicating that the SAS token provider class error as written below. Despite his attempts to troubleshoot and resolve the issue, you are unable to establish a successful connection to ADLS Gen2 from his local Spark environment.
Error Warning
The error indicating that the SAS token provider class org.apache.hadoop.fs.azurebfs.sas.FixedSASTokenProvider cannot be found.
Solution
To answer your question if there is any fs.azure.sas.token.provider.type
that comes with any azure JAR's that you can use for ABFSS (Azure Blob FileSystem Storage) connectivity from my local spark.
Firstly, yes! There are SAS token provider classes available in Azure JAR files that you can use for ABFSS (Azure Blob FileSystem Storage) connectivity from Spark running locally. One commonly used SAS token provider class is org.apache.hadoop.fs.azurebfs.sas.SimpleSASTokenProvider.
This SAS token provider class is provided by the hadoop-azure-datalake JAR file. When configuring Spark session properties for ABFSS connectivity, you can set the fs.azure.sas.token.provider.type.<storage-account-name>.dfs.core.windows.net property to use this SAS token provider class.
In the below I have provided how you can set the SAS token provider type in Scala:
spark.conf.set("fs.azure.sas.token.provider.type.<storage-account-name>.dfs.core.windows.net", "org.apache.hadoop.fs.azurebfs.sas.SimpleSASTokenProvider")
Replace <storage-account-name> with the name of your Azure storage account.
Using SimpleSASTokenProvider is one approach for generating SAS tokens for ABFSS connectivity from Spark running locally. Depending on your specific requirements and environment, you may also explore other SAS token provider classes provided by Azure JAR files such as:
- org.apache.hadoop.fs.azurebfs.sas.EnvironmentVariableSASTokenProvider
- org.apache.hadoop.fs.azurebfs.sas.SharedKeySASTokenProvider
- org.apache.hadoop.fs.azurebfs.sas.UriSASTokenProvider
- org.apache.hadoop.fs.azurebfs.sas.TokenProvider
Finally
These are some of the SAS token provider classes provided by Azure JAR files that offer flexibility in generating and managing SAS tokens for accessing Azure storage services like ABFSS (Azure Blob FileSystem Storage). Depending on your use case and requirements, you can choose the appropriate SAS token provider class for your Spark application.
However, I will advise you to always ensure the followings:
- Confirm that the necessary JAR files for Azure connectivity are included in the Spark application's classpath. Ensure that the versions of the JAR files (hadoop-azure-<version>.jar, hadoop-azure-datalake-<version>.jar, etc.) are compatible with your Spark version and Azure services.
- Review the Spark session configuration settings provided by the user to ensure they are correctly set up for ADLS Gen2 connectivity.
- Confirm that the authentication type is set to use SAS token authentication (fs.azure.account.auth.type.<storage-account-name>.dfs.core.windows.net should be "SAS").
- Double-check the SAS token provider class (fs.azure.sas.token.provider.type.<storage-account-name>.dfs.core.windows.net) and the SAS token itself (fs.azure.sas.token.fixed.<storage-account-name>.dfs.core.windows.net).
In addition, after you have done the above, if the class org.apache.hadoop.fs.azurebfs.sas.FixedSASTokenProvider is not found, explore alternative SAS token provider classes as enlists up under the solution, they should be available in the provided JAR files.
