Using Amazon S3 with Hue

Hue can read to and write to an Amazon S3 bucket.

In Cloudera Data Warehouse (CDW), you can browse Amazon S3 buckets from Hue in the following ways:
  • With Ranger Authorization Service (RAZ)
  • Without Ranger Authorization Service (RAZ)
If you have registered your CDP Public Cloud environment using RAZ, policies attached to the Ranger RAZ Service role at the Data Lake-level can control access to external S3 buckets. If your Virtual Warehouse predates the capability to use RAZ configurations and policies, then you must manually enable RAZ for CDW and then configure Hue to access S3 buckets. Your Data Lake must be RAZ-enabled to manually enable RAZ exclusively for CDW.
