问题
I know that Sqoop allows us to import data from a RDBMS into HDFS. I was wondering if the sql server connector in sqoop also allows us to import it directly into HBase? I know we can do this with mysql. I was wondering if the same can be done with sql server too
回答1:
I am working in the Hortonworks Sandbox, and I was able to pull data from a SQL Server instance into an HBase table by doing the following steps:
- Get the SQL Server JDBC driver onto the Hadoop box.
curl -L 'http://download.microsoft.com/download/0/2/A/02AAE597-3865-456C-AE7F-613F99F850A8/sqljdbc_4.0.2206.100_enu.tar.gz' | tar xz
- Copy the driver into the correct location for sqoop to be able to find it:
cp sqljdbc_4.0/enu/sqljdbc4.jar /usr/lib/sqoop/lib
- Run a sqoop import
sqoop import --hbase-create-table --hbase-table table_name_in_hbase --column-family cf_name --hbase-row-key my_ID --connect "jdbc:sqlserver://hostname:1433;database=db_name;username=sqoop;password=???" --table tablename_in_sql_server -m 1

回答2:
It is possible to directly import data into HBase from any relational database using Sqoop. This post how it can be done using a Mysql Database Server and import it directly to HBase.
回答3:
you can import data into HBase from any RDBMS as lons as it provides JDBC driver. Sqoop interface with any other RDBMS is using JDBC.
