Integrating Apache Sqoop with MySQL and Hadoop
Apache Sqoop can only work if Hadoop is installed on the server. Apache Sqoop requires Linux based operating system to work . ForHadoop and Sqoop to work on the Linux server, Java must be installed on the server. Once Sqoop is installed on the server, we will need to download Sqoop's MySQL connector which will allow JDBC driver to connect with MySQL database for transferring data with Hadoop.
Hadoop
is an open source, Big Data framework to process and analyze large amount of data sets quickly by using a cluster of environment. Because of Hadoop's multiple slave nodes environment, it's easy to avoid system failure or data loss if one or more nodes go off. Hadoop basically works with multiple modules such as Yet Another Resource Negotiator (YARN), Hadoop distributed file system (HDFS), and MapReduce. Hadoop's MapReduce algorithm is used for parallel processing of the data. MapReduce is used to convert unstructured data to a structured format using...
