Use wizards in DBArtisan to create a JDBC data source for Cassandra.
The CData JDBC Driver for Cassandra seamlessly integrates Cassandra data into database management tools like DBArtisan by enabling you to access Cassandra data as a database. This article shows how to create a JDBC source for Cassandra in DBArtisan. You can then edit data visually and execute standard SQL.
Integrate Cassandra Data into DBArtisan Projects
Follow the steps below to register Cassandra data as a database instance in your project:
- In DBArtisan, click Data Source -> Register Datasource.
- Select Generic JDBC.
- Click Manage.
- In the resulting dialog, click New. Enter a name for the driver and click Add. In the resulting dialog, navigate to the driver JAR. The driver JAR is located in the lib subfolder of the installation directory.
-
In the Connection URL box, enter credentials and other required connection properties in the JDBC URL.
Set the Server, Port, and Database connection properties to connect to Cassandra. Additionally, to use internal authentication set the User and Password connection properties.
Built-in Connection String Designer
For assistance in constructing the JDBC URL, use the connection string designer built into the Cassandra JDBC Driver. Either double-click the JAR file or execute the jar file from the command-line.
java -jar cdata.jdbc.cassandra.jar
Fill in the connection properties and copy the connection string to the clipboard.
Below is a typical connection string:
jdbc:cassandra:Database=MyCassandraDB;Port=7000;Server=127.0.0.1;
- Finish the wizard to connect to Cassandra data. Cassandra entities are displayed in the Datasource Explorer.
You can now work with Cassandra data as you work with any other database. See the driver help documentation for more information on the queries supported by the Cassandra API.
