Cloudera Operational Database service in the Cloudera on cloud

Cloudera Operational Database is a service that runs on the Cloudera on cloud. Cloudera Operational Database enables you to create a new Cloudera Operational Database with a single click and auto-scales based on your workload.

Cloudera Operational Database delivers a real-time, always available, scalable operational database that serves traditional structured data alongside unstructured data within a unified operational and warehousing platform.

Cloudera Operational Database is powered by Apache HBase and Apache Phoenix. In Cloudera Operational Database, you use Apache HBase as a datastore with HDFS and/or S3 providing the storage infrastructure. You have the choice to either develop applications using one of the native Apache HBase API, or you can use Apache Phoenix for data access. Apache Phoenix is a SQL layer that provides a programmatic ANSI SQL interface. It works on top of Apache HBase, and it makes it possible to handle data using standard SQL queries and Apache Phoenix commands. You can use Cloudera Operational Database in the on cloud or on premises.

You can access Cloudera Operational Database from the Cloudera console: https://console.cdp.cloudera.com/. The Cloudera Operational Database experience is a tile that you can click on your Cloudera console home screen.
