Overview

The The Hive Snap Pack supports  supports Apache Knox authentication to connect to the Hive service on the Cloudera Data Platform authentication. You can use the (CDP)'s Data Hub clusters. Using the Workload user's credentials, you can use a Generic Hive Database Account to connect to the Hive database through the knox Knox reverse proxy using the Workload user's credentials. The Cloudera Workload user credentials are used to authenticate against with the Knox reverse proxy and subsequently connect to the Hive database. The Knox reverse proxy hides the complex details for managing kerberos based the authentication and authorization from based on the clientKerberos protocol.

Prerequisites

• Valid Cloudera Workload user’s credentials.

• Clouder Cloudera instance.

Locate Details in the Cloudera Data Platform

To validate your Generic Hive Database account in the SnapLogic against platform with the Clouder Cloudera Knox reverse proxy, you must have the following details:

• JDBC URL

• JDBC Driver Class

• Workload User name and password.

1. Log in to Cloudera Data Platform the CDP portal (https://sso.cloudera.com) or register yourself if you do not have an account.

Configuring a Generic Hive Database Account with

...

Settings from the CDP

1. Drag the Hive Execute Snap.

2. Add the Generic Hive Database Account account to the Snap.

3. Enter the Username and Password of your Cloudera workloadWorkload instance. (Refer to Step 7 above.)

4. Enter the JDBC URL of the Hive Server.
   Note: By default, the raw URL (refer to the Step 6 in the section above for the raw URL format) is got obtained from Clouderathe CDP; you have to must enter the port number right after the domain and update the SSL value from true to 1. , wherein 0 is false and 1 is true. (Refer to Step 6 above for the raw URL format.)
   If the cluster is SSL-enabled, the default value of SSL is true in the JDBC URL; replace it with 1.

   1. Enter the Site number as 443.

   2. If the SSL is enabled on the Hive server, leave SSL as true. If the SSL is not enabled on the server, enter SSL as 0 or 1.
      For example, jdbc:hive2://data<cdp-hubdatahub-cluster-1-gateway.snap-tea.j7vi-6hdh.a3.cloudera.sitehost>:443/;ssl=1;transportMode=http;httpPath=data-hub-cluster-1/cdp-proxy-api/hive

5. Upload the Hive driver in the JDBC Driver field. You can download the latest JDBC Hive driver from here.
   

   

6. Specify the JDBC Driver Class as com.cloudera.hive.jdbc.HS2Driver.
