sql2hdfs connector #23

Closed frbattid closed 9 years ago

frbattid commented 10 years ago

As feedback got from Sevilla's FI-WARE event: it would be desirable a component able to dump all the data within a SQL batabase into Cosmos HDFS.

This could start a new kind of "dumping" components which must be disabled once all the data has been moved to Cosmos.

I did not realize this is something already developed by Apache...

http://sqoop.apache.org/

Sqoop is a tool designed to transfer data between Hadoop and relational databases. You can use Sqoop to import data from a relational database management system (RDBMS) such as MySQL or Oracle into the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS), transform the data in Hadoop MapReduce, and then export the data back into an RDBMS.

I'll try to install it in our Global Instance.
