DESCRIPTION
Apache Sqoop is a tool designed for efficiently transferring bulk data
between Apache Hadoop and structured datastores such as relational databases.
It can be used to import data from external structured datastores into Hadoop

Sqoop can be used to extract data from Hadoop and export it to external
structured datastores such as relational databases and enterprise data
warehouses.
