Sqoop Cheat Sheet

Sqoop can be used to import, export, and transfer data between Hadoop and structured data sources like relational databases. This document provides a cheat sheet on common Sqoop commands and their usage including sqoop help, list-databases, import, import-all-tables, export, job, merge, and eval. Sqoop import is used to move data into HDFS/Hive, export moves data out of HDFS/Hive to a database, and other commands like merge allow joining new data to existing tables.
