No. Because the only distcp import command is same as Sqoop import command and both the commands submit parallel map-only jobs but both command functions are different. Distcp is used to copy any type of files from Local filesystem to HDFS and Sqoop is used for transferring the data records between RDBMS and Hadoop eco- system service.
