Sqoop Big Data Tech

This document provides an overview of Apache Sqoop, a tool for transferring bulk data between relational databases and Hadoop. It discusses the key features and challenges of Sqoop 1, and how Sqoop 2 was designed to address these through a more modular architecture, improved security, and uniform functionality across connectors. The current status of Sqoop 2 is that it is the primary focus of the Sqoop community, with an initial release available for testing and feedback.

 Sqoop  for  Data  Transfer  for  Big  Data

What  is  Sqoop?  

•  Apache  Top-­‐Level  Project  


•  SQl  to  hadOOP  
•  Tool  to  transfer  data  from  relaLonal  databases  
•  Teradata,  MySQL,  PostgreSQL,  Oracle,  Netezza  
•  To  Hadoop  ecosystem  
•  HDFS  (text,  sequence  file),  Hive,  HBase,  Avro  
•  And  vice  versa  

3
Why  Sqoop?  
•  Efficient/Controlled  resource  uLlizaLon  
•  Concurrent  connecLons,  Time  of  operaLon  
•  Datatype  mapping  and  conversion  
•  AutomaLc,  and  User  override  
•  Metadata  propagaLon  
•  Sqoop  Record  
•  Hive  Metastore  
•  Avro

Sqoop  1  

5  
Sqoop  1  
•  Based  on  Connectors  
•  Responsible  for  Metadata  lookups,  and  Data  Transfer  
•  Majority  of  connectors  are  JDBC  based  
•  Non-­‐JDBC  (direct)  connectors  for  opLmized  data  transfer  
•  Connectors  responsible  for  all  supported  funcLonality  
•  HBase  Import,  Avro  Support,  ...  

6
Sqoop  1  Challenges  

•  CrypLc,  contextual  command  line  arguments  


•  Security  concerns  
•  Type  mapping  is  not  clearly  defined  
•  Client  needs  access  to  Hadoop  binaries/configuraLon  
and  database  
•  JDBC  model  is  enforced  

7
Sqoop  1  Challenges  
•  Non-­‐uniform  funcLonality  
•  Different  connectors  support  different  capabiliLes  
•  Overlapped/Duplicated  funcLonality  
•  Different  connectors  may  implement  same  capabiliLes  
differently  
•  High  coupling  with  Hadoop  
•  Database  vendors  required  to  understand  Hadoop  
idiosyncrasies  in  order  to  build  connectors.

Sqoop  2  

9  
Sqoop  2  –  Design  Goals  
•  Security  and  SeparaLon  of  Concerns  
•  Role  based  access  and  use  
 
•  Ease  of  extension  
•  No  low-­‐level  Hadoop  knowledge  needed    
•  No  funcLonal  overlap  between  Connectors  
 
•  Ease  of  Use  
•  Uniform  funcLonality  
•  Domain  specific  interacLons  

10
Sqoop  2:  ConnecLon  vs  Job  metadata  

There  are  two  disLnct  sets  of  opLons  to  pass  into  Sqoop:  
 Connection (distinct per database) Job (distinct per table)

11
Sqoop  2:  Workings  
•  Connectors  register  metadata  
•  Metadata  enables  creaLon  of  ConnecLons  and  Jobs  
•  ConnecLons  and  Jobs  stored  in  Metadata  Repository  
•  Operator  runs  Jobs  that  use  appropriate  connecLons  
•  Admins  set  policy  for  connecLon  use  

12
Sqoop  2:  Security  

•  Support  for  secure  access  to  external  systems  via  


role-­‐based  access  to  connecLon  objects  
•  Administrators  create/edit/delete  connecLons  
•  Operators  use  connecLons  

13
Current  Status:  Sqoop  2  

•  Primary  focus  of  the  Sqoop  Community    


•  First  cut:  1.99.1    

•  bits  and  docs:  h?p://sqoop.apache.org/
