Configuring access to WASB

Hortonworks Data Platform (HDP) supports reading and writing block blobs and page blobs from and to Windows Azure Storage Blob (WASB) object store.

Windows Azure Storage Blob (WASB) is an object store service available on Azure. WASB is not supported as default file system, but access to data in WASB is possible via the wasb connector.

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