Title: Connection to Hadoop (HDFS level)
Post by: ciber on 27 Feb 2014 07:59:35 AM
Hi All,

We are going for a PoC (Cognos and Hadoop).
Is it posible to connect directly to the HDFS level with IBM Cognos?

Hi,

Cognos 10.2.1 has assorted connections to Big Data sources via JDBC, some of which are Hadoop-based.

Not sure if this is what you are looking for?

Hi MFGF,

Yes, I think I this is what we are looking for.
But how did you get the Hive as an option in the list?
And the IBM InfoSphere BigInsights ?

I don't have that kind of list in out evironment.
We are also running on Cognos 10.2.1.1

Good question! I have 10.2.1.1 with IF3 applied. Not sure if the IF makes a difference?

Cheers!

Hi MFGF,

Took me some time, but I have installed IF1 / IF3 (is there no IF2?)...
Great, I now have the same list you post.

Thanks!
