To successfully and efficiently innovate and improve customer experience, the company looked to Amazon Web Services (AWS).ĭropbox has since moved 34 PB of analytics data to a data lake in Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3)-an object storage service that offers industry-leading scalability, data availability, security, and performance-and uses Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) and Amazon EC2 Spot Instances to power the compute for its Hadoop clusters. The clusters held petabytes of analytical data, including server logs, instrumentation, and metadata related to Dropbox’s more than 600 million global customers. Being responsible for the durability of the data it stored in Apache Hadoop, Dropbox had to be conservative with what technologies it could experiment with. The source code with API v1 and v2 is hosted on my GitHub, here.In 2018, Dropbox identified a need to migrate away from its on-premises Hadoop clusters. TransferData.upload_file(file_from=file_from, file_to=file_to) TransferData = TransferData(access_token)įile_to = '/test_dropbox/test.txt' # The full path to upload the file to, including the file name #files_upload(f, path, mode=WriteMode('add', None), autorename=False, client_modified=None, mute=False) #!/usr/bin/env pythonĭef upload_file(self, file_from=None, file_to=None): The following source code is given along with API v2 (simpler, more consistent, and more comprehensive). Obtain the access token from Dropbox Developers by creating an app.Install the Python module Dropbox by sudo pip install dropbox.Both Dropbox API v1 and v2 allow to upload data.
The first step is to upload files to Dropbox and then download the files from Dropbox. Compress data, upload to Dropbox, get the shared link and use wget to download data on the server side.
I come up with another way to speed up the transfer rate with the help of Dropbox. The most common way to transfer data between clients and servers is to use FTP applications like FileZilla. Transfer data with Dropbox 2.1 Upload files to EC2 I am figuring out how to download data by using Dropbox API. 100% 903MB 339.0KB/s 45:29Īs you can see, the data rate is so slow and it took 45 minutes to transfer 903M.
Tar czf $(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S).tar.gz / # filename with the current date and time, e.g., Use scp (secure copy) to download data from EC2.
Transfer data with scp 1.1 Upload files to EC2 scp -i wp_sparkandshine.pem Download files from EC2
