Hi Sujith, Srinivas is asking how to import data into HDFS using sqoop? I believe he must have thought out well before designing the entire architecture/solution. He has not specified whether he would like to modify the data or not. Whether to use HIve or HBase is a different question altogether and depends on his use-case.
