The Couchbase Hadoop Connector, which leverages Sqoop, makes it easier for organizations to have interoperability between Couchbase Server and Cloudera.

With the integration, data is streamed in either direction between Couchbase Server and Hadoop. The product integration enables enterprises to use any of the engines – Impala, Spark, Cloudera Search, Hive or others that are part of an enterprise data hub to analyze data. The connector is certified on Cloudera 5 and Couchbase Server 2.5 and 3.0.
“The certification of Couchbase on Cloudera Enterprise 5 enables Couchbase customers to leverage the benefits of an integrated Cloudera and Couchbase solution,” said Tim Stevens, Vice President, Corporate and Business Development, Cloudera. “By partnering with Couchbase, we can offer companies the flexibility of building an enterprise data hub using Cloudera as the Hadoop distribution of choice to merge real-time, transactional data with large-scale analytics.”
