Writing Data to Hadoop

Procedure

Double-click tHDFSOutput to open its Component view.
Select the Use an existing connection check box to reuse the connection to Hadoop you have defined in the previous section.
In the File Name field, enter the path, or browse to the directory in HDFS in which you want to write the data. This directory is created if it does not exist in the HDFS.

In this step, if you are able to navigate to the HDFS system, this means the secured connection you defined in the previous sections has been successful.
From the Type list, select Text File.
From the Action list, select Create.
In the Field Separator field, enter \t.
Press F6 to execute the Job and view the result in Hue, which is Cloudera’s web console of the HDFS service.
