Unable to search kudu tables in Cloudera Navigator

Meher — Tue, 22 Oct 2019 21:07:52 GMT

Hi Team,

Does kudu tables show up in Cloudera Navigator search for metadata. These tables are created in Impala as Kudu storage type and I'm unable to see them in Navigator. I did not apply any filters in search.

Any possible reason?

Thanks,

Meher

Hi Meher,

Kudu will not integrate with Hive Metastore (HMS) without specific changes. Consider the following from kudu.apache.org.

"Kudu has an optional feature which allows it to integrate its own catalog with the Hive Metastore (HMS). The HMS is the de-facto standard catalog and metadata provider in the Hadoop ecosystem. When the HMS integration is enabled, Kudu tables can be discovered and used by external HMS-aware tools, even if they are not otherwise aware of or integrated with Kudu. "

You'll need to configure Kudu to integrate with HMS.
