Connections are used by WhereScape 3D to define connectivity properties for other systems for the purpose of discovery and profiling.
WhereScape 3D allows for three types of connections:
- database connections
- host connections
- script based connections
Database connections can connect to any database for which there is a JDBC or ODBC driver. Host connections can connect to a variety of file systems.
Script based connections make it possible to connect to sources such as REST/SOAP Services, Cloud Based Storage, JSON/XML/AVRO, and many more.
