Apache HBase


You can use the Apache HBase connector from the CData Sync application to capture data from Apache HBase and move it to any supported destination. To do so, you need to add the connector, authenticate to the connector, and complete your connection.

Add the Apache HBase Connector

To enable Sync to use data from Apache HBase, you first must add the connector, as follows:

  1. Open the Connections page of the Sync dashboard.

  2. Click Add Connection to open the Select Connectors page.

  3. Click the Sources tab and locate the Apache HBase row.

  4. Click the Configure Connection icon at the end of that row to open the New Connection page. If the Configure Connection icon is not available, click the Download Connector icon to install the Apache HBase connector. For more information about installing new connectors, see Connections.

Authenticate to Apache HBase

After you add the connector, you need to set the required properties.

  • Connection Name - Enter a connection name of your choice.

  • Server - Enter the host name or IP address of the Apache HBase REST server.

  • Port - Enter the port number for the Apache HBase REST server. The default port value is 8080.

CData Sync supports authenticating to Apache HBase in several ways. Select your authentication method below to proceed to the relevant section that contains the authentication details.

None

To connect without authentication, select None for Auth Scheme. No additional properties are required.

Basic

To connect with your user credentials, set the following properties:

  • Auth Scheme: Select Basic.

  • User - Enter the username that you use to authenticate to your Apache HBase account.

  • Password - Enter the password that you use to authenticate to your Apache HBase account.

Negotiate

To connect with Kerberos credentials, specify the following properties:

  • Auth Scheme – Select Negotiate.

  • Kerberos KDC - Enter the Kerberos Key Distribution Center (KDC) service that you use to authenticate.

  • Kerberos Realm - Enter the Kerberos Realm that you use to authenticate.

  • Kerberos SPN - Enter the service principal name (SPN) for the Kerberos domain controller.

  • Kerberos Keytab File (optional) - Enter the keytab file that contains your pairs of the Kerberos principals and encrypted keys.

  • Kerberos Ticket Cache (optional) - Enter the full file path to the Kerberos credential cache file.

Complete Your Connection

To complete your connection:

  1. Define advanced connection settings on the Advanced tab. (In most cases, though, you should not need these settings.)

  2. Click Create & Test to create your connection.
