Course Description

This video explains Microsoft SQL Server's PolyBase feature, which allows virtualizing data from Azure Blob Storage and Apache Hadoop into SQL Server. This video will show you how to configure SQL Server to connect to Azure Blob Storage. It also shows how to connect to both public and secure blob containers. The video will also show you how to connect to Hadoop clusters, and how to query Hadoop data. You will then learn how to connect PolyBase with a Hadoop cluster in Cloudera's Hadoop distribution or the Hortonworks Data Platform. Once you have connected, you'll learn how to query Hadoop data using streaming and predicate pushdown. The video also provides key tips for troubleshooting Hadoop integrations. This includes tips on where to find log data and common configuration and data issues.
