Apache Sqoop

A tool for efficiently transferring bulk data between Apache Hadoop and structured datastores such as relational databases.

Sqoop was accepted into Apache Incubator on June 11, 2011. Status information is available at http://incubator.apache.org/projects/sqoop.html.

Progress since last report:

  • CCLA from Cloudera regarding license grant for existing Sqoop code from Cloudera has been received by ASF.
