Supported Databases
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
Sqoop uses JDBC to connect to databases. JDBC is a compatibility layer
|
|
that allows a program to access many different databases through a common
|
|
API. Slight differences in the SQL language spoken by each database, however,
|
|
may mean that Sqoop can't use every database out of the box, or that some
|
|
databases may be used in an inefficient manner.
|
|
|
|
When you provide a connect string to Sqoop, it inspects the protocol scheme to
|
|
determine appropriate vendor-specific logic to use. If Sqoop knows about
|
|
a given database, it will work automatically. If not, you may need to
|
|
specify the driver class to load via +--driver+. This will use a generic
|
|
code path which will use standard SQL to access the database. Sqoop provides
|
|
some databases with faster, non-JDBC-based access mechanisms. These can be
|
|
enabled by specfying the +--direct+ parameter.
|
|
|
|
Sqoop includes vendor-specific code paths for the following databases:
|
|
|
|
[grid="all"]
|
|
`-----------`--------`--------------------`---------------------

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 +jdbc:postgresql://+
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Sqoop may work with older versions of the databases listed, but we have
|
|
only tested it with the versions specified above.
|
|
|
|
Even if Sqoop supports a database internally, you may still need to
|
|
install the database vendor's JDBC driver in your +$HADOOP_HOME/lib+
|
|
path.
