Using Apache Sqoop

Deepak Vohra · Apress eBooks · 2015

Apache Sqoop is a Hadoop ecosystem framework for transferring bulk data from a relational database (RDBMS) to Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS), Apache HBase, and Apache Hive. Sqoop also supports bulk data transfer from HDFS to a RDBMS. The direct data transfer paths supported by Sqoop are shown in Figure 11-1. Sqoop supports HSQLDB (version 1.8.0+), MySQL (5.0+), Oracle (10.2.0) and PostgreSQL (8.3+) and may also be usable with other relational databases such as IBM DB2 database and versions. Sqoop makes use of JDBC for data transfer and requires Java to be installed and the JDBC driver jar to be in the runtime classpath. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
