Configuring access to ADLS

Hortonworks Data Platform (HDP) supports reading and writing files stored in an Azure Data Lake Storage (ADLS) account.

Azure Data Lake Store (ADLS) is an enterprise-wide hyper-scale repository for big data analytic workloads. ADLS is not supported as default file system, but access to data in ADLS is possible via the adl connector.

These steps assume that you are using an HDP version that supports the adl cloud storage connector (HDP 2.6.1 or newer).
