Lily HBase Batch Indexing for Cloudera Search
With Cloudera Search, you can batch index HBase tables using the Lily HBase batch indexer MapReduce job, also known as HBaseMapReduceIndexerTool. This batch indexing does not require:
- HBase replication
- The Lily HBase Indexer Service
- Registering a Lily HBase Indexer configuration with the Lily HBase Indexer Service
The indexer supports flexible, custom, application-specific rules to
extract, transform, and load HBase data into Solr. Solr search results can
contain columnFamily:qualifier links back to the data
stored in HBase. This way, applications can use the search result set to
directly access matching raw HBase cells.
The following procedures demonstrate creating a small HBase table and using the HBaseMapReduceIndexerTool to index the table into a collection:
