To delete Hadoop data, you can use the Hadoop File System (HDFS) commands. Here are the steps to delete data from HDFS:
Open your terminal.
Use the
hdfs dfs -rmcommand to delete specific files:hdfs dfs -rm /path/to/your/fileTo delete a directory and all its contents, use the
-r(recursive) option:hdfs dfs -rm -r /path/to/your/directoryTo delete all data in HDFS, you can remove the root directory (be cautious with this command):
hdfs dfs -rm -r /To confirm deletion, you can list the contents of the directory:
hdfs dfs -ls /path/to/your/directory
Make sure you have the necessary permissions to delete the files or directories in HDFS.
