Establishing connection to MAPR

[seshu456]

There is already a connection has been setup from SAS to cloudera, now i got a request to establish connection MAPR distribution.

Is this possible to SAS connected to both Cloudera and MAPR?

If possible please share the process to follow.

Thanks in advance.

Supporting Multiple Hadoop Versions and upgrading Hadoop Version

The JAR files in the SAS_HADOOP_JAR_PATH directory and .xml files found in the SAS_HADOOP_CONFIG_PATH directory must match the Hadoop server to which SAS connects. If you have multiple Hadoop servers running different Hadoop versions, create and populate separate directories with version-specific Hadoop JAR and XML files for each Hadoop version.

The SAS_HADOOP_JAR_PATH and SAS_HADOOP_CONFIG_PATH directory can be dynamically set depending on which Hadoop server a SAS job or SAS session connects to. Example below:
options set=SAS_HADOOP_JAR_PATH='K:\user\Hadoop\TSD\cdh5\jars';

options set=SAS_HADOOP_CONFIG_PATH='K:\user\Hadoop\TSD\cdh5\sitexmls';

libname cdh5 hadoop server='severname.domain.com';

Hi 

Thanks for the reply.

Can you please provide a step by step process for establishing the connection for SAS to Hadoop.

One more doubt if we established the connection to multiple Hadoop versions. Is it possible that we can connect to them in parallel?

I suggest you contact SAS Technical support with this question. https://support.sas.com/en/technical-support.html . You'll have to provide some more details on what exactly you want to do and on the environment in which you are working. The steps depend on many factors.
