Load Data Into Cloud Storage

This topic does not apply to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.

To load data into Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Object Storage Classic, you must have the URL and credentials for the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Object Storage Classic container associated with the cluster when the cluster was created. Clusters are created by administrators, who then provide the storage container URL and credentials to cluster users. A cluster cannot be associated with more than one container, and cannot be associated with a container after the cluster has been created.

To load data into the container associated with the cluster, use the tools and methods documented in the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Object Storage Classic documentation. The following resources will help get you started:

• Managing Containers in Object Storage Classic in Using Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Object Storage Classic

• Managing Objects in Object Storage Classic in Using Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Object Storage Classic

• Uploading Files in Command-Line Reference for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Object Storage Classic

• Creating a Single Object in Using Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Object Storage Classic

You can also upload up to 5 GB of data to Cloud Storage by using the Big Data Cloud Console. To upload data using the console:

1. Open the console for a cluster. See Access the Big Data Cloud Console.
2. Click Data Stores.

   The Data Stores page is displayed. For information about the details on this page, see Big Data Cloud Console: Data Stores Page.

3. Click Cloud Storage.

   From here you can browse files and directories in the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Object Storage Classic container associated with the cluster. To make browsing easier, filter by prefix.

4. Click Upload.
5. In the Upload File window, specify the directory to which you want to upload the file in the Path field, browse to the file or directory you want to upload in the File field, and click OK. The upload limit is 5 GB.
