Hi Dojo,
we have an external SQL database and I want to connect our Dataminer to it.
There are information's which we than use to create services in Dataminer.
What would be the best approach? Using a Automation script and receive the data and after that trigger service template to create the services?
Hi Stefan,
For this use case, you could proceed as follows:
- Ingest stage:
Use the connector indicated by Arun to interface with the DB. This connector will enable you to control and monitor the data ingestion process effectively. - Processing/provisioning stage:
Depending of your requirements, you could use either an automation script or a connector:- If monitoring is required:
A driver is the recommended approach. You can use an alarm template to monitor the provisioning, and maintain logs of previous provisioning executions. A connector can also facilitate CRUD operations for service provisioning. - If monitoring is not required:
If you only need to provision services without monitoring the process, an automation script is a suitable option.
- If monitoring is required:
In both cases, if possible, try to use a service template to provision services.
Hope it helps.
Hi Stefan,
Can you try using this driver ?
This connector can connect to an SQL Server database, execute queries, and retrieve the responses.
