Hi @Jeeva Siva ,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A platform and thank you for using this forum.

Currently, Azure Data Lake Analytics supports only Azure Data Lake Gen1. As per the information from internal team, there are no plans to support ADLS Gen2 with ADLA (U-SQL).

Please refer to this user voice thread and feel free to share/add your comments/feedback on it : https://feedback.azure.com/forums/327234-data-lake/suggestions/36445702-add-support-for-adls-gen2-to-adla

Other references on similar discussion:

Here is recommendation for new customers that want to build a big data solution: It is recommended to look at our new Azure Synapse offering currently in preview. In case if you are looking to start now with a GA 'd (Generally Available) product then I would suggest either Azure HDInsight or Azure Databricks.

Hope this information helps.

Thank you
