You can use the Apache Hive connector from the CData Sync application to capture data from Apache Hive 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 Hive Connector

To enable Sync to use data from Apache Hive, 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 Hive 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 Hive connector. For more information about installing new connectors, see Connections.

Authenticate to Apache Hive

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

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