Dear CDH Users,

We are pleased to announce the release of the Cloudera Connector for Netezza version 1.3. This release has the following new feature:

• A new --schema argument is now supported. This argument defines the schema that Sqoop uses for both import and export. The schema is used for metadata queries, and for record extraction and loading (available in Netezza 7.0.3 or later).

This connector release is available for CDH 5 only. We look forward to you trying it out, using the information below:

• Download the Connector

As always, we are happy to hear your feedback. Please send your comments and suggestions through our community forums. You can also file bugs through our external JIRA projects on issues.cloudera.org.
