How to use Atlas metadata with DynamoDB

avatar
Contributor

Hi, I have created 'BerkeleyDB and Elastic search' build for Atlas which are used by Titan as back-end

Is there any way to integrate/export this data with DynamoDB or MySQL type of databases?

No, Atlas requires Titan Graph Database which only supports BerkeleyDB, HBase and Cassandra as storage backends.

No, Atlas only works with Titan, not Janusgraph. So you cannot use DynamoDB as a datastore for Atlas.

In order to ingest the metadata for a SQL like source, you can use Sqoop which integrates with Atlas.

If you're looking for using DynamoDB/MySQL as datastore for Atlas, that not currently possible with Titan 0.5.4 (only Hbase, cassandra and berkeleyDB are supported).

Can we use Sqoop export to export the metadata of non-hive entities(e.g. entities of MySQL tables)?

Hi @Muhammad Imran Tariq,

If you're looking for bringing in data FROM MySQL into Atlas, that can be done using sqoop.
