Metadata replication

This page provides information about various types of metadata replication.

Ranger metadata
When a DLM replication job is run, data, metadata, and any Ranger policies that are associated with the replicated data are automatically exported to the target.
Atlas metadata
Atlas plugin within DLM is used to replicate Atlas metadata. It uses incremental export to move data across clusters, thereby optimizing the payload for speed and size. Atlas replication is optional and can be turned ON during the DLM replication policy setup time.
Snapshot replication between HDP clusters
You can optionally enable HDFS snapshots for replication in Data Lifecycle Manager. Understanding how snapshots work, and some of the benefits and costs involved, can help you to decide whether or not to enable snapshot replication.
