Connect Hbase in Hortonworks and Tableau

Step 1 : Start the rest server in Hortonworks Linux machine

             /usr/hdp/2.2.6.0-2800/hbase/bin/hbase-daemon.sh start rest -p 9768

Note: 9768 is port I have selected. make sure this port is free in your machine or else use a different port.

Step 2 : Download Simba ODBC Driver (in Windows Machine, where your tableau server is)

             http://www.simba.com/connectors/apache-hbase-odbc

Step 3 : Install it.

Step 4 :

Go to path highlighted in Yellow -> Add your Public Virtual IP ( you can get it from Azure VM -  Dashboard) . Enter port as used in command in step 1.

Step 5 : If you are using Azure , make sure in endpoints you have opened 9768 port.

Step 6 : Test the connection, it should show list of tables.

Step 7 : Connect with tableau using Other ODBC Connection. Select Simba as DNS and provide Server.

Step 8 : If it doesn't work, make sure you have copied Simba licence file, which you received in email to the installed location. (C:\Program Files\Simba HBase ODBC Driver\lib)
