Is Sqoop similar to distcp in hadoop?



Partially yes, hadoop’s distcp command is similar to Sqoop Import command. Both submits parallel map-only jobs but distcp is used to copy any type of files from Local FS/HDFS to HDFS and Sqoop is for transferring the data records only between RDMBS and Hadoop eco system services, HDFS, Hive and HBase.
