I am new to Google's BigQuery (BQ). I am looking for a way to use SQL Developer (SD) as my primary GUI.
I have tried setting up a third party JDBC, but it does not seem to work. I downloaded Google's JDBC drivers for BQ and tried setting it up as a third party connection in SD. It registers, but does not show on the create new connection.
It is supposed to show up as a new Connection Type tab, but nothing is shown.
Is it possible to access BigQuery with SQL Developer? If so, can anyone provide me with the correct steps to duplicate?
Have you tried the Simba Driver? It provides not only JDBC, but ODBC (3.8 is supported) as well.
Alternatively you can check this documentation on how to Access BigQuery Data as a Remote Oracle Database.
I have already set up an Azure SQL Database and loaded results into it form my local machine via R (RODBC) successfully. I can do queries in R Studio with no problem.
However when I use the same code in Execute R script module in the ML studio, I get an error that the connection is not open.
What do I need to change? Have tried different strings for the driver with no avail.
The reason Reader or Import Data module is not working for my case is that I am creating an API that provides me with the information to query the database before doing analytics. The database is very big and I do not want to load whole table and then use project columns, etc.
Any help is really appreciated
Thanks all
RODBC in Execute R Script is not supported. You can use an Import Data (aka. Reader) module, and mark the query string as a web service parameter, if you need to dynamically inject the query.
A company uses netsuites to make purchase orders and store sales information. The only way this company is able to access this information at the moment is through building netsuites reports
Is there a way SQL language could be written to access the netsuites data as some of the questions asked by the business need something a bit more complex than what netsuites reporting provides - and sound very easy using SQL language
I have experience in Oracle, mysql, and many other SQL languages so I would like to know how to set up a connection to the companies netsuites data so I can help write custom queries
Netsuite has SuiteAnalytics Connect, which is ODBC. It can be downloaded from a link at the very bottom the home screen of your Netsuite account.
After installation of the application bundle and connecting it to your Netsuite, you can write ORACLE SQL queries via Excel, Access, etc. My experience is that Netsuite uses Oracle SQL in ODBC queries and in Saved Search custom queries.
The way I understand it, the ODBC driver is a separately priced item from NetSuite. Once you have that, you could use Excel, Access, Crystal Reports or anything else that can use the ODBC driver to read the data and write queries against it.
The normal way to access NetSuite data is with SuiteScript -- javascript code that uses the nlapi* calls to get to the data.
You can access Netsuite backend using a number of different tools and it allows running Oracle SQL directly.
Netsuite provides JDBC, ADO.NET and ODBC if it was included in your licensing purchase. You can find the downloads from the main menu - lower left hand of the screen in Settings - Set Up SuiteAnalytics Connect.
ADO.net however is pretty worthless in SSIS as it doesn't allow parameter mapping or SQL from a variable value. I have yet to get the ODBC driver to work correctly - it can connect and show columns of a table but it won't validate saying "The ODBC Source.Outputs[ODBC Source Error Output].Columns[...] on the error output has properties that do not match the properties of its corresponding data source column."
The other options I'm looking into are Cozyroc and Kinsgwaysoft adapters for Netsuite. You could also do SOAP or REST connections if desired.
I've not used this, but there should as of 2014.2 there is an ODBC driver available for read access.
http://www.netsuite.com/portal/landing/2014-2/suiteanalytics.shtml
As previously mentioned, if you have it licensed you can download the ODBC driver from the Netsuite application. I tested some other adapters but found Netsuite's at least as good as the competitors and they provide timely security updates to the drivers as well as both 64 and 32 bit versions.
There are also metadata browsers that are on the net (example is URL below), the type of browser being based on which kind of access you are looking at (web services, verses ODBC, etc).
https://system.sandbox.netsuite.com/help/helpcenter/en_US/srbrowser/Browser2017_2/odbc/record/account.html
Within the application GUI there is information you need to connect using their ODBC connection (you need the account id and the role id). The URL is just odbcserver.xxxx.netsuite.com where xxx is specific to your environment you are accessing. Note that other adapters such as Cozyroc, etc. require the admin to setup connections in Netsuite for those.
Here is a list of the main metadata tables:
OA_FKEYS
OA_TABLES
OA_COLUMNS
In addition, note that the URL above does NOT include customization. Plus its not easily consumed by automation tools. But Netsuite provides a set of metadata views within the repository which you can use ODBC to pull from which includes all keys - foreign and primary. AND it does include customizations! I built simple set of ETL jobs that use standard ADO.NET driver within SSIS and the ODBC DSN to pull all the metadata and then use BIML to automatically generate all the extract ETL and related staging tables. You can also easily then use the metadata to detect changes in the underlying database.
Let me know if I can be any help with doing any of this.
There are 3rd party tools, like CData ODBC Adapter for NetSuite: http://www.cdata.com/drivers/netsuite/odbc/ . This tool allows you to run standard SQL against the NetSuite API. Note that the NetSuite API presents a very different data model from that of the native NetSuite ODBC.
With this tool, you install in onto your machine (Win in my case) and then after you configure the driver, you can run SQL against it (the driver config is where you specify your NS credentials, etc.).
It revolutionizes access to NetSuite data IMHO.
Download the Netsuite ODBC drivers, set up your DSN locally with server/credentials, Use SSIS pkgs to automate data extract and load onto you local DB. Use ADO.NET drivers if preferred. Then utilize those tables to create/deliver your complex reports using SQL (stored procedures) and Reporting Services. This will require SQL Standard license at minimum though.
Only API call can access the NetSuite data
You can't access to Netsuite data using sql language.
The only way to gain access to Netsuite from third party systems is to use SOAP request or PHP toolkit.
My company is developing an ODBC driver to access a native database, built internally.
We would like to plug database OLAP tools like Tableau, for example.
How do I know which calls the SQL tableau performs?
For example, what SQL query to get the measures and dimensions?
Is the any documentation?
I found only this link:http://kb.tableausoftware.com/articles/knowledgebase/tableau-and-odbc
Thanks
Most companies build their ODBC drivers using the SimbaEngine ODBC SDK. SimbaEngine is the foundation for most of the ODBC drivers that Tableau connects with including ones like Google, Hive, and Cassandra. If you use the SimbaEngine SDK to build your custom ODBC driver, we can pretty much guarantee it will not only work with Tableau, but will also work with other products like Excel, QlikView, BusinessObjects, etc. Using the SimbaEngine SDK, you can build a basic read-only ODBC driver in as little as 5 days. Also, once you have built your ODBC driver, the SDK allows you to quickly take that and build JDBC and ADO.NET drivers as well. You can get more information at http://www.simba.com/products/simba-engine-sdk.
I was doing a lotus notes workflow which needs to connect to my ERP system, AS400 to search and extract data into the workflow.
Any idea I can possibly do that?
Thanks!!
You can use DECS on the domino to connect to your AS400 using a scripted activity (or configure a sync). Therefor you need a DB2- driver installed on your Domino server. The other possibility would be to use LEI (that costs a bunch of money, but can do a lot more). The third possibility would be to use lsxcon- classes and write an Agent to get data.
A JAVA- Agent with JDBC might be possible as well (if AS400 supports access using JDBC and you have the appropriate driver).
All solutions will either need someone to code it or money to buy the licences...
If it is a "one time" or "manual" task then the DB2 driver can be installed on a Client where the agent is run manually or in a local schedule (only working if client is running).
