# Azure Data Lake Analytics libraries for Java

## Overview

Run big data analysis jobs that scale to massive data sets with [Azure Data Lake Analytics](/azure/data-lake-analytics/data-lake-analytics-overview).

To get started with Azure Data Lake Analytics, see [Get started with Azure Data Lake Analytics using Java SDK](/azure/data-lake-analytics/data-lake-analytics-get-started-java-sdk).

## Management API

Use the management API to manage Data Lake Analytics accounts, jobs, policies, and catalogs.

[Add a dependency](https://maven.apache.org/guides/getting-started/index.html#How_do_I_use_external_dependencies) to your Maven `pom.xml` file to use the management API in your project.


```XML
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.microsoft.azure</groupId>
    <artifactId>azure-mgmt-datalake-analytics</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.0-beta1.3</version>
</dependency>
```

## Example

Submit a new U-SQL job to Data Lake Analytics.

```java
// authenticate with service principal credentials
ApplicationTokenCredentials creds = new ApplicationTokenCredentials(_clientId, _tenantId, _clientSecret, null);
DataLakeAnalyticsJobManagementClient adlaJobClient = new DataLakeAnalyticsJobManagementClientImpl(creds);

// set up job parameters
UUID jobId = java.util.UUID.randomUUID();
USqlJobProperties properties = new USqlJobProperties();
properties.setScript("@input =  EXTRACT Data string FROM \"/input1.csv\" USING Extractors.Csv(); OUTPUT @input TO @\"/output1.csv\" USING Outputters.Csv();");
JobInformation parameters = new JobInformation();
parameters.setName("testJob");
parameters.setJobId(jobId);
parameters.setType(JobType.USQL);
parameters.setProperties(properties);

// create the job
JobInformation jobInfo = adlaJobClient.getJobOperations().create(accountName, jobId, parameters).getBody();
```
