s3fs seems to fail from time to time when reading from an S3 bucket using an AWS Lambda function within a VPN. I am using s3fs==0.4.0 and pandas==1.0.1.
import s3fs
import pandas as pd
def lambda_handler(event, context):
bucket = event['Records'][0]['s3']['bucket']['name']
s3_file = event['Records'][0]['s3']['object']['key']
s3fs.S3FileSystem.connect_timeout = 1800
s3fs.S3FileSystem.read_timeout = 1800
with s3fs.S3FileSystem(anon=False).open(f"s3://{bucket}/{s3_file}", 'rb') as f:
self.data = pd.read_json(f, **kwargs)
The stacktrace is the following:
Traceback (most recent call last):

Has someone faced this same issue? Why would it fail only sometimes? Is there a s3fs configuration that could help for this specific issue?
Actually there was no problem at all with s3fs. Seems like we were using a Lambda function with two Subnets within the VPC and one was working normally but the other one wasn't allowed to access S3 resources, therefore when a Lambda was spawned using the second network it wouldn't be able to connect at all.
Fixing this issue was as easy as removing the second subnet.
