Integrate Garoon Data in Your Informatica Cloud Instance

Informatica Cloud allows you to perform extract, transform, and load (ETL) tasks in the cloud. With the Cloud Secure Agent and the CData JDBC Driver for Garoon, you get live access to Garoon data, directly within Informatica Cloud. In this article, we will walk through downloading and registering the Cloud Secure Agent, connecting to Garoon through the JDBC Driver and generating a mapping that can be used in any Informatica Cloud process.

Informatica Cloud Secure Agent

To work with the Garoon data through the JDBC Driver, install the Cloud Secure Agent.

1. Navigate to the Administrator page in Informatica Cloud
2. Select the Runtime Environments tab
3. Click "Download Secure Agent"
4. Make note of the Install Token
5. Run the installer on the client machine and register the Cloud Secure Agent with your username and install token

NOTE: It may take some time for all of the Cloud Secure Agent services to get up and running.

Connecting to the Garoon JDBC Driver

With the Cloud Secure Agent installed and running, you are ready to connect to Garoon through the JDBC Driver. Start by clicking the Connections tab and clicking New Connection. Fill in the following properties for the connection:

• Connection Name: Name your connection (i.e.: CData Garoon Connection)
• Type: Select "JDBC_IC (Informatica Cloud)"
• Runtime Environment: Select the runtime environment where you installed the Cloud Secure Agent
• JDBC Connection URL: Set this to the JDBC URL for Garoon. Your URL will look similar to the following:
  
  jdbc:garoon:User=myuseraccount;Password=mypassword;Url=http://subdomain.domain.com;

  Garoon への認証は、パスワード認証、Basic 認証、クライアントSSL をサポートしています。

  パスワード認証

  Garoon への認証には、以下を設定する必要があります。

  • Url：アカウントのURL。
  • User：アカウントのユーザー名。
  • Password：アカウントのパスワード。

  Basic 認証

  Basic 認証セキュリティ機能がドメインに設定されている場合は、BasicAuthUser とBasicAuthPassword の追加ログイン資格情報を指定します。Basic 認証ではUser とPassword に加えて、これらのクレデンシャルが必要です。

  クライアントSSL

  Basic 認証の代わりに、クライアント証明書を指定して本製品を認証できます。 SSLClientCert、SSLClientCertType、 SSLClientCertSubject、 およびSSLClientCertPassword を設定します。 さらに、User とPassword をGaroon のログイン資格情報に設定します。

  Built-In Connection String Designer

  For assistance in constructing the JDBC URL, use the connection string designer built into the Garoon JDBC Driver. Either double-click the .jar file or execute the .jar file from the command-line.

  java -jar cdata.jdbc.garoon.jar

  Fill in the connection properties and copy the connection string to the clipboard.

• JDBC Jar Directory: Set this to the lib folder in the installation location for the JDBC Driver (on Windows, typically C:\Program Files\CData\CData JDBC Driver for Garoon\)
• Driver Class: Set this to cdata.jdbc.garoon.GaroonDriver
• Username: Set this to the username for Garoon
• Password: Set this to the password for Garoon

Create a Mapping for Garoon Data

With the connection to Garoon configured, we can now access Garoon data in any Informatica process. The steps below walk through creating a mapping for Garoon to another data target.

1. Navigate to the Data Integration page
2. Click New.. and select Mapping from the Mappings tab
3. Click the Source Object and in the Source tab, select the Connection and set the Source Type
4. Click "Select" to choose the table to map
5. In the Fields tab, select the fields from the Garoon table to map
6. Click the Target object and configure the Target source, table and fields. In the Field Mapping tab, map the source fields to the target fields.

With the mapping configured, you are ready to start integrating live Garoon data with any of the supported connections in Informatica Cloud. Download a free, 30-day trial of the CData JDBC Driver for Garoon and start working with your live Garoon data in Informatica Cloud today.
