Use CData Sync to Customize and automate Adobe Analytics data replication to Couchbase.
Always-on applications rely on automatic failover capabilities and real-time access to data. CData Sync integrates live Adobe Analytics data into your Couchbase instance, allowing you to consolidate all of your data into a single location for archiving, reporting, analytics, machine learning, artificial intelligence and more.
Configure Replication Destinations
Using CData Sync, you can replicate Adobe Analytics data to Couchbase. To add a replication destination, navigate to the Connections tab.
- Click Add Connection.
- Select Couchbase as a destination.
- Enter the necessary connection properties.
- Server - Enter either the host name or the IP address of your Couchbase server.
- Auth Scheme - Select the authentication scheme. Basic is the default setting. For this setting, specify your login credentials:
- User - Enter the username that you use to authenticate to Couchbase.
- Password - Enter the password that you use to authenticate to Couchbase.
- Couchbase Service - Select the Couchbase service that you want to use. The default service is N1QL.
- Connection Mode - Select the connection mode that you want to use. The default mode is Direct.
- Use SSL - Specify whether you want to use the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol. The default value is False.
- Click Test Connection to ensure that the connection is configured properly.
- Click Save Changes.
Configure the Adobe Analytics Connection
You can configure a connection to Adobe Analytics from the Connections tab. To add a connection to your Adobe Analytics account, navigate to the Connections tab.
- Click Add Connection.
- Select a source (Adobe Analytics).
- Configure the connection properties.
Adobe Analytics uses the OAuth authentication standard. To authenticate using OAuth, you will need to create an app to obtain the OAuthClientId, OAuthClientSecret, and CallbackURL connection properties. See the "Getting Started" section of the help documentation for a guide.
Retrieving GlobalCompanyId
GlobalCompanyId is a required connection property. If you do not know your Global Company ID, you can find it in the request URL for the users/me endpoint on the Swagger UI. After logging into the Swagger UI Url, expand the users endpoint and then click the GET users/me button. Click the Try it out and Execute buttons. Note your Global Company ID shown in the Request URL immediately preceding the users/me endpoint.
Retrieving Report Suite Id
Report Suite ID (RSID) is also a required connection property. In the Adobe Analytics UI, navigate to Admin -> Report Suites and you will get a list of your report suites along with their identifiers next to the name.
After setting the GlobalCompanyId, RSID and OAuth connection properties, you are ready to connect to Adobe Analytics.
- Click Connect to ensure that the connection is configured properly.
- Click Save Changes.
Configure Replication Queries
CData Sync enables you to control replication with a point-and-click interface and with SQL queries. For each replication you wish to configure, navigate to the Jobs tab and click Add Job. Select the Source and Destination for your replication.
Replicate Entire Tables
To replicate an entire table, click Add Tables in the Tables section, choose the table(s) you wish to replicate, and click Add Selected Tables.
Customize Your Replication
You can use the Columns and Query tabs of a task to customize your replication. The Columns tab allows you to specify which columns to replicate, rename the columns at the destination, and even perform operations on the source data before replicating. The Query tab allows you to add filters, grouping, and sorting to the replication.Schedule Your Replication
In the Schedule section, you can schedule a job to run automatically, configuring the job to run after specified intervals ranging from once every 15 minutes to once every month.
Once you have configured the replication job, click Save Changes. You can configure any number of jobs to manage the replication of your Adobe Analytics data to Couchbase.
