# s3 object checksum for multi-part uploads | |
The multipart ETag is actually a single-level Merkle tree hash of part hashes concatenated with the number of parts, e.g., ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff-31. | |
If you used a known part size and if s3fs exposed the ETag, you could actually calculate this in your application. | |
However this should not be needed; most S3 storage systems scrub data behind the scenes and proactively repair it based on ETag. |
