Apache Sqoop is a discontinued open-source command-line tool for bulk data transfer between Apache Hadoop and structured data stores. It was commonly used to import relational database tables or mainframe datasets into HDFS for processing with Hadoop tools, then export processed data back to a relational database.

SAP Vora is a computing engine designed to provide better accessibility to Hadoop data from SAP HANA. SAP Vora manages unstructured Hadoop data by building structured data hierarchies and making the data queryable through an SQL interface.
Sqoop is great for sending data between a JDBC compliant database and a Hadoop environment. Sqoop is built for those who need a few simple CLI options to import a selection of database tables into Hadoop, do large dataset analysis that could not commonly be done with that database system due to resource constraints, then export the results back into that database (or another). Sqoop falls short when there needs to be some extra, customized processing between database extract, and Hadoop loading, in which case Apache Spark's JDBC utilities might be preferred

I spent more than 1 year with SAP Vora, SAP Datahub and SAP Leonardo with ML, iOt. I believe this product has potential but it is not easy to adopt. SAP has to keep in mind how open-source big data technologies are able to deliver quick results. I know SAP is stabilizing and fighting hard against many open source technologies, but it still has a long way to go there.

Sqoop2 development seems to have stalled. I have set it up outside of a Cloudera CDH installation, and I actually prefer it's "Sqoop Server" model better than just the CLI client version that is Sqoop1. This works especially well in a microservices environment, where there would be only one place to maintain the JDBC drivers to use for Sqoop.

Sqoop comes preinstalled on the major Hadoop vendor distributions as the recommended product to import data from relational databases. The ability to extend it with additional JDBC drivers makes it very flexible for the environment it is installed within.
Spark also has a useful JDBC reader, and can manipulate data in more ways than Sqoop, and also upload to many other systems than just Hadoop.
Kafka Connect JDBC is more for streaming database updates using tools such as Oracle GoldenGate or Debezium.
Streamsets and Apache NiFi both provide a more "flow based programming" approach to graphically laying out connectors between various systems, including JDBC and Hadoop.

When combined with Cloudera's HUE, it can enable non-technical users to easily import relational data into Hadoop.
Being able to manipulate large datasets in Hadoop, and them load them into a type of "materialized view" in an external database system has yielded great insights into the Hadoop datalake without continuously running large batch jobs.
Sqoop isn't very user-friendly for those uncomfortable with a CLI.
