These are demos to show the capabilities of Polybase in SQL Server 2019 (independent of Big Data Clusters)
Use the polybase workspace skill and begin with
fundamentals, then the
data-hub scenarios. These historical instructions
reference SQL Server 2019 preview-era components. Verify current feature and
connector support before installing or changing services. Use a disposable lab
and supply connection credentials through
private SQLCMD inputs.
The demos are organized into the following folders
Use these demos to show basics of Polybase head and compute nodes and the execution lifecycle of an external table to HDFS files. Yout must go through this demo to setup Polybase to be able to run the demos in the sqldatahub folder, unless you already have a SQL Server 2019 CTP 2.3 or higher Polybase cluster.
These demos show an example of using the WideWorldImporters database as a hub in SQL Server but connected to related data in other sources such as
- SQL Server 2008R2
- Azure SQL Database
- HDFS
- Oracle
- CosmosDB
- SAP HANA
Note: These demos all require you to setup Polybase on SQL Server 2019 CTP 2.3 or higher with all of the steps from the Fundamentals folder.
