Sqoop - Data transfer tool from RDBMS to Hadoop Box

[v5tech]

TO IMPORT & EXPORT DATA FROM RDBMS (MYSQL,ORACLE, etc) INTO HDFS / HIVE / HBASE

Pre-requisite

Apache Hadoop

Apache Sqoop (compatible with Hadoop version)

Apache Hive (optional)

Apache HBase (optional)

Apache HCatalog (optional)

JDBC/ODBC connector

For all RDBMS, Connection URL changes and remaining all command line arguments remains same. You need to download specific JDBC/ODBC connector JAR and copy it to $SQOOP_HOME/lib

MySQL

Download mysql-connector-java.jar and place in $SQOOP_HOME/lib folder

cp mysql-connector-java-5.1.18-bin.jar /usr/local/hadoop/sqoop-1.4.3-cdh4.4.0/lib/

Expecting you have data in MySQL tables.

Retrieving list of Databases available in MySQL from SQOOP

sqoop list-databases --connect jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/  --username root -P

• MySQL to HDFS Import

Have Primary key:

sqoop import -connect jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/db1 -username root -password password --table tableName --target-dir /path/to/directoryName

No Primary key:

sqoop import -connect jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/db1 -username root -password password --table tableName --target-dir /path/to/directoryName  -m 1

• MySQL to Hive Import

Have Primary key:

sqoop-import  --connect jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/db1 -username root -password password --table tableName  --hive-table tableName --create-hive-table --hive-import --hive-home path/to/hive_home

No Primary key:

sqoop-import  --connect jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/db1 -username root -password password --table tableName  --hive-table tableName --create-hive-table --hive-import --hive-home  path/to/hive_home -m 1

• MySQL to HBase Import

Have Import All columns:

sqoop import --connect jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/db1 --username root --password root --table tableName --hbase-table hbase_tableName  --column-family hbase_table_col1 --hbase-create-table

HBase import few columns

sqoop import --connect jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/db1 --username root --password root --table tableName --hbase-table hbase_tableName --columns column1,column2 --column-family hbase_table_col1 --hbase-create-table

To HBase with Primary key:

sqoop import --connect jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/db1 --username root --password root --table tableName --hbase-table hbase_tableName --column-family hbase_table_col1 --hbase-row-key column1 –hbase-create-table

To Hbase with no primary key:

sqoop import --connect jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/db1 --username root --password root --table tableName --hbase-table hbase_tableName --columns column1,column2 --column-family hbase_table_col --hbase-row-key column1 --hbase-create-table

• Export from HDFS to MySQL:

Same for all Hive/HBase/HDFS: Because Hive tables are nothing but directories in HDFS. So you're just exporting a directory to MySQL

sqoop export --connect jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test_db --table tableName  --export-dir /user/hive/warehouse/tableName --username root --password password -m 1 --input-fields-terminated-by '\001'

SQL Server

Connection URL:

sqoop import --connect 'jdbc:sqlserver://<IP(or)hostname>;username=dbuser;password=dbpasswd;database=<DB>' --table <table> --target-dir /path/to/hdfs/dir --split-by <KEY> -m 1

Download Connector from Microsoft website

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=11774
Place it in $SQOOP_HOME/lib

Oracle

Connection URL:

sqoop import --connect "jdbc:oracle:thin:@(description=(address=(protocol=tcp)(host=myhost)(port=1521))(connect_data=(service_name=myservice)))" \
--username USER --table SCHEMA.TABLE_NAME --hive-import --hive-table SCHEMA.TABLE_NAME \
--num-mappers 1 --verbose -P \

IBM DB2

Download the DB2Driver and place it in $SQOOP_HOME/lib

sqoop import --driver com.ibm.db2.jcc.DB2Driver --connect jdbc:db2://db2.my.com:50000/testdb --username db2user --db2pwd --table db2tbl --split-by tbl_primarykey --target-dir sqoopimports

sqoop export --driver com.ibm.db2.jcc.DB2Driver --connect jdbc:db2://db2.my.com:50000/myDB --username db2user --password db2pwd --table db2tbl --export-dir /sqoop/dataFile.csv

Different Connection Strings for Different RDBMS

Database version --direct support? connect string matches

HSQLDB 1.8.0+ No jdbc:hsqldb:*//

MySQL 5.0+ Yes jdbc:mysql://

Oracle 10.2.0+ No jdbc:oracle:*//

PostgreSQL 8.3+ Yes (import only) jdbc:postgresql://
