PolyBase configuration and security for Hadoop

Applies to: SQL Server - Windows only Azure SQL Managed Instance

This article provides a reference for various configuration settings that affect PolyBase connectivity to Hadoop. For a walkthrough on how to use PolyBase with Hadoop, see Configure PolyBase to access external data in Hadoop.

Note

Starting in SQL Server 2022 (16.x), Hadoop is no longer supported in PolyBase.

Hadoop.RPC.Protection setting

A common way to secure communication in a hadoop cluster is by changing the hadoop.rpc.protection configuration to 'Privacy' or 'Integrity'. By default, PolyBase assumes the configuration is set to 'Authenticate'. To override this default, add the following property to the core-site.xml file. Changing this configuration will enable secure data transfer among the hadoop nodes and TLS connection to SQL Server.

<!-- RPC Encryption information, PLEASE FILL THESE IN ACCORDING TO HADOOP CLUSTER CONFIG -->
   <property>
     <name>hadoop.rpc.protection</name>
     <value></value>
   </property>

To use 'Privacy' or 'Integrity' for hadoop.rpc.protection, the SQL Server instance version must be at least SQL Server 2016 SP1 CU7, SQL Server 2016 SP2, or SQL Server 2017 CU3.

Example XML files for CDH 5.X cluster

Yarn-site.xml with yarn.application.classpath and mapreduce.application.classpath configuration.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="configuration.xsl"?>
<!-- Put site-specific property overrides in this file. -->
 <configuration>
   <property>

      <value>40000</value>
   </property>
   <property>
      <name>yarn.resourcemanager.connect.retry-interval.ms</name>
      <value>30000</value>
   </property>
<!-- Applications' Configuration-->
   <property>
     <description>CLASSPATH for YARN applications. A comma-separated list of CLASSPATH entries</description>
      <!-- Please set this value to the correct yarn.application.classpath that matches your server side configuration -->
      <!-- For example: $HADOOP_CONF_DIR,$HADOOP_COMMON_HOME/share/hadoop/common/*,$HADOOP_COMMON_HOME/share/hadoop/common/lib/*,$HADOOP_HDFS_HOME/share/hadoop/hdfs/*,$HADOOP_HDFS_HOME/share/hadoop/hdfs/lib/*,$HADOOP_YARN_HOME/share/hadoop/yarn/*,$HADOOP_YARN_HOME/share/hadoop/yarn/lib/* -->
      <name>yarn.application.classpath</name>
      <value>$HADOOP_CLIENT_CONF_DIR,$HADOOP_CONF_DIR,$HADOOP_COMMON_HOME/*,$HADOOP_COMMON_HOME/lib/*,$HADOOP_HDFS_HOME/*,$HADOOP_HDFS_HOME/lib/*,$HADOOP_YARN_HOME/*,$HADOOP_YARN_HOME/lib/,$HADOOP_MAPRED_HOME/*,$HADOOP_MAPRED_HOME/lib/*,$MR2_CLASSPATH*</value>
   </property>

   <property>
      <name>yarn.resourcemanager.principal</name>
      <value></value>
   </property>
-->
</configuration>

If you choose to break your two configuration settings into the mapred-site.xml and the yarn-site.xml, then the files would be the following:

For yarn-site.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="configuration.xsl"?>
<!-- Put site-specific property overrides in this file. -->
 <configuration>
   <property>
      <name>yarn.resourcemanager.connect.max-wait.ms</name>
      <value>40000</value>
   </property>
   <property>
      <name>yarn.resourcemanager.connect.retry-interval.ms</name>
      <value>30000</value>
   </property>
<!-- Applications' Configuration-->
   <property>
     <description>CLASSPATH for YARN applications. A comma-separated list of CLASSPATH entries</description>
      <!-- Please set this value to the correct yarn.application.classpath that matches your server side configuration -->
      <!-- For example: $HADOOP_CONF_DIR,$HADOOP_COMMON_HOME/share/hadoop/common/*,$HADOOP_COMMON_HOME/share/hadoop/common/lib/*,$HADOOP_HDFS_HOME/share/hadoop/hdfs/*,$HADOOP_HDFS_HOME/share/hadoop/hdfs/lib/*,$HADOOP_YARN_HOME/share/hadoop/yarn/*,$HADOOP_YARN_HOME/share/hadoop/yarn/lib/* -->
      <name>yarn.application.classpath</name>
      <value>$HADOOP_CLIENT_CONF_DIR,$HADOOP_CONF_DIR,$HADOOP_COMMON_HOME/*,$HADOOP_COMMON_HOME/lib/*,$HADOOP_HDFS_HOME/*,$HADOOP_HDFS_HOME/lib/*,$HADOOP_YARN_HOME/*,$HADOOP_YARN_HOME/lib/*</value>
   </property>

<!-- kerberos security information, PLEASE FILL THESE IN ACCORDING TO HADOOP CLUSTER CONFIG
   <property>
      <name>yarn.resourcemanager.principal</name>
      <value></value>
   </property>
-->
</configuration>

For mapred-site.xml:

Note the property mapreduce.application.classpath. In CDH 5.x you will find the configuration values under the same naming convention in Ambari.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="configuration.xsl"?>
<!-- Put site-specific property overrides in this file. -->
<configuration xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude">

   </property>

     <value></value>

   <property>
     <name>mapreduce.jobhistory.address</name>
     <value></value>
   </property>
-->
</configuration>

Kerberos configuration

Note, when PolyBase authenticates to a Kerberos secured cluster, it expects the hadoop.rpc.protection setting is 'Authenticate' by default. This leaves the data communication between Hadoop nodes unencrypted. To use 'Privacy' or 'Integrity' settings for hadoop.rpc.protection, update the core-site.xml file on the PolyBase server. For more information, see the previous section Connecting to Hadoop Cluster with Hadoop.rpc.protection.

To connect to a Kerberos-secured Hadoop cluster using MIT KDC:

  1. Find the Hadoop configuration directory in the installation path of SQL Server. Typically, the path is C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL13.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Binn\PolyBase\Hadoop\conf.

  2. Find the Hadoop side configuration value of the configuration keys listed in the table. (On the Hadoop machine, find the files in the Hadoop configuration directory.)

  3. Copy the configuration values into the value property in the corresponding files on the SQL Server machine.

    # Configuration file Configuration key Action
    1 core-site.xml polybase.kerberos.kdchost Specify the KDC hostname. For example: kerberos.your-realm.com.
    2 core-site.xml polybase.kerberos.realm Specify the Kerberos realm. For example: YOUR-REALM.COM

    Configuration note: Realm name must be written in upper case.

    Multi-realm is not supported.
    3 core-site.xml hadoop.security.authentication Find the Hadoop side configuration and copy to SQL Server machine. For example: KERBEROS

    Security note: KERBEROS must be written in upper case.
    4 hdfs-site.xml dfs.namenode.kerberos.principal Find the Hadoop side configuration and copy to SQL Server machine. For example: hdfs/_HOST@YOUR-REALM.COM
    5 mapred-site.xml mapreduce.jobhistory.principal Find the Hadoop side configuration and copy to SQL Server machine. For example: mapred/_HOST@YOUR-REALM.COM
    6 mapred-site.xml mapreduce.jobhistory.address Find the Hadoop side configuration and copy to SQL Server machine. For example: 10.xxx.xxx.174:10020
    7 yarn-site.xml yarn.resourcemanager.principal Find the Hadoop side configuration and copy to SQL Server machine. For example: yarn/_HOST@YOUR-REALM.COM
  4. Create a database-scoped credential object to specify the authentication information for each Hadoop user. See PolyBase T-SQL objects.
