| Introduction |
| ============ |

| PXF is an extensible framework that allows HAWQ to query external system data. |
| PXF includes built-in connectors for accessing data that exists inside HDFS files, Hive tables, HBase tables and more. |
| Users can also create their own connectors to other parallel data stores or processing engines. |
| To create these connectors using JAVA plugins, see the Pivotal Extension Framework API and Reference Guide . |
