Adithya, Here small articles about: MS SQL => Sqoop http://mapredit.blogspot.com/2011/10/sqoop-and-microsoft-sql-server.html And to use the self-generated classes: http://mapredit.blogspot.com/2011/10/speedup-sqoop.html - Alex On Fri, Dec 9, 2011 at 5:51 AM, <bejoy...@yahoo.com<mailto:bejoy...@yahoo.com>> wrote: Adithya The answer is yes. SQOOP is the tool you are looking for. It has an import option to load data from from any jdbc compliant database into hive. It even creates the hive table for you by refering to the source db table. Hope It helps!..
