Includes standard Enterprise-class security features such as TLS/ SSL data encryption for all client-server communications.
Connecting to Greenplum with Python
CData Python Connectors leverage the Database API (DB-API) interface to make it easy to work with Greenplum from a wide range of standard Python data tools. Connecting to and working with your data in Python follows a basic pattern, regardless of data source:
- Configure the connection properties to Greenplum
- Query Greenplum to retrieve or update data
- Connect your Greenplum data with Python data tools.
Connecting to Greenplum in Python
To connect to your data from Python, import the extension and create a connection:
import cdata.greenplum as mod conn = mod.connect("[email protected]; Password=password;") #Create cursor and iterate over results cur = conn.cursor() cur.execute("SELECT * FROM GreenplumTable") rs = cur.fetchall() for row in rs: print(row)
Once you import the extension, you can work with all of your enterprise data using the python modules and toolkits that you already know and love, quickly building apps that help you drive business.
Visualize Greenplum Data with pandas
The data-centric interfaces of the Greenplum Python Connector make it easy to integrate with popular tools like pandas and SQLAlchemy to visualize data in real-time.
engine = create_engine("greenplum///Password=password&User=user") df = pandas.read_sql("SELECT * FROM GreenplumTable", engine) df.plot() plt.show()
More Than Read-Only: Full Update/CRUD Support
Greenplum Connector goes beyond read-only functionality to deliver full support for Create, Read Update, and Delete operations (CRUD). Your end-users can interact with the data presented by the Greenplum Connector as easily as interacting with a database table.
