How to connect to Vertica?

Answered
xwenyi asked on February 16, 2022

Hi, 
Vertica is an MPP database with good performance.  This DB provides JDBC and ODBC drivers for connection. What's the suggested way to connect this DB? Is it necessary to develop a custom data source by ourselves? Thanks.

Hello, 
 
Thank you for reaching out to us.
 
Kindly note that Vertica is not supported in Flexmonster out of the box. 
We suggest these approaches to connect the component to your data source:

  • Writing a server-side script that returns data in a JSON or CSV format – learn more here.
  • For .NET Core stack: using Flexmonster Data Server as a DLL, which allows implementing custom data fetching logic – learn more here.
  • For any stack: implementing a custom server that will retrieve data from your data source and pass it to Flexmonster – learn more here.

 
Please let us know if it works for you. Feel free to contact us if other questions arise.
 
Kind regards,
Nadia
