Hello community,
1. I'd like to know what people are doing when they need to do a daily Sqoop import, incremental or not, to append the data to an existing file. One possible solution I can think of is Hadoop archive files. Does Sqoop support an append to an existing file or HAR is the way to go in my scenario? Also 2. Another question I have is that if I sqoop import using -as-avrodatafile in conjunction with -compress, the result is returned with .avro extension. If I wasn't using compression, I can cat the file, how may I view the file when it's compressed? I have three files with .avro extension, I tried to run gunzip -d on them but it won't recognize the codec. Thank you.
