Apache Sqoop
Deepak Vohra · Apress eBooks · 2016
Apache Sqoop is a tool for transferring large quantities of data between a relational database, such as MySQL and Oracle database, and the Hadoop ecosystem, which includes the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS), Apache Hive, and Apache HBase. While Sqoop supports transfer between a relational database and HDFS bi-directionally, Sqoop only supports transfer from a relational database to Apache Hive and Apache HBase uni-directionally. The data transfer paths supported by Apache Sqoop are illustrated in Figure 5-1. 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.
