To run mappings on a MapR cluster that uses Kerberos or MapR Ticket authentication with information in Hive tables, generate a MapR ticket for the Data Integration Service user.

The Data Integration Service user requires an account on the MapR cluster and a MapR ticket on the application service machines that require access to MapR. When the MapR cluster uses both Kerberos and Ticket authentication, you generate a single ticket for the Data Integration Service user for both authentication systems.

After you generate and save MapR tickets, you perform additional steps to configure the Data Integration Service, the Metadata Access Service, and the Analyst Service to communicate with the MapR cluster.
