• Sqoop metastore is an internally implemented database that can hold the definition of a given job.<\/li>\n
• It includes details like which database,which table,which approach,what query to extract from,what target to write to and so on.<\/li>\n
• Consider an array of SQL databases that have the same structure, but are partitioned by for performance reasons.<\/li>\n
• Thus we have the same sqoop job running against multiple database instances at the same time, all unified at a single table in Hadoop.<\/li>\n
• In order to get parallelization, we generate a job that manages the Sqoop sub-workflows. This results in 500 distinct sqoop jobs.<\/li>\n
• Metastore is used to handle these complexities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
