Connect to SingleStore Data in DigitalSuite Studio through RunMyProcess DSEC

The CData JDBC Driver for SingleStore implements JDBC Standards and enables a applications ranging from BI to IDE to connect with SingleStore. In this article, we describe how to connect to SingleStore data from Arkobi Digital RunMyProcess's DSEC and connect to SingleStore in RunMyProcess.

Setting up EnterpriseConnect Agent

Configure the EnterpriseConnect Agent following the EnterpriseConnect page in the RunMyProcess documentation.

Setting up JDBC Adapter

The JDBC Adapter section describes the steps to connect to RDBMS through JDBC. Follow the steps and open the JDBC.config file.

1. Create a JSON entry for the CData JDBC Driver for SingleStore, e.g. SingleStore = { "sqlDriver" : "...", "sqlSource" : "...", "sqlDriverPath" : "..." }
2. Set the "sqlDriver" field to the Class name for the CData JDBC Driver, e.g.
   cdata.jdbc.singlestore.SingleStoreDriver
3. Set the "sqlSource" field to a JDBC URL for connecting to SingleStore, e.g.
   jdbc:singlestore:User=myUser;Password=myPassword;Database=NorthWind;Server=myServer;Port=3306;

   Built-in Connection String Designer

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

   java -jar cdata.jdbc.singlestore.jar

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

   The following connection properties are required in order to connect to data.

   • Server: The host name or IP of the server hosting the SingleStore database.
   • Port: The port of the server hosting the SingleStore database.
   • Database (Optional): The default database to connect to when connecting to the SingleStore Server. If this is not set, tables from all databases will be returned.

   Connect Using Standard Authentication

   To authenticate using standard authentication, set the following:

   • User: The user which will be used to authenticate with the SingleStore server.
   • Password: The password which will be used to authenticate with the SingleStore server.

   Connect Using Integrated Security

   As an alternative to providing the standard username and password, you can set IntegratedSecurity to True to authenticate trusted users to the server via Windows Authentication.

   Connect Using SSL Authentication

   You can leverage SSL authentication to connect to SingleStore data via a secure session. Configure the following connection properties to connect to data:

   • SSLClientCert: Set this to the name of the certificate store for the client certificate. Used in the case of 2-way SSL, where truststore and keystore are kept on both the client and server machines.
   • SSLClientCertPassword: If a client certificate store is password-protected, set this value to the store's password.
   • SSLClientCertSubject: The subject of the TLS/SSL client certificate. Used to locate the certificate in the store.
   • SSLClientCertType: The certificate type of the client store.
   • SSLServerCert: The certificate to be accepted from the server.

   Connect Using SSH Authentication

   Using SSH, you can securely login to a remote machine. To access SingleStore data via SSH, configure the following connection properties:

   • SSHClientCert: Set this to the name of the certificate store for the client certificate.
   • SSHClientCertPassword: If a client certificate store is password-protected, set this value to the store's password.
   • SSHClientCertSubject: The subject of the TLS/SSL client certificate. Used to locate the certificate in the store.
   • SSHClientCertType: The certificate type of the client store.
   • SSHPassword: The password that you use to authenticate with the SSH server.
   • SSHPort: The port used for SSH operations.
   • SSHServer: The SSH authentication server you are trying to authenticate against.
   • SSHServerFingerPrint: The SSH Server fingerprint used for verification of the host you are connecting to.
   • SSHUser: Set this to the username that you use to authenticate with the SSH server.
4. Set the "sqlDriverPath" field to the name of the CData JDBC Driver JAR file, e.g.
   cdata.jdbc.singlestore.jar

Sample JDBC.config File

Put the JDBC driver JAR file (cdata.jdbc.singlestore.jar) into the same directory as unified-adapter-[version].jar.

Note: Make sure to put the CData license file (cdata.jdbc.singlestore.lic) into the same directory. Since the license is generated based on the unique identifier of the machine where the product in installed, you will need an offline activation if you want to put the file on another machine.

Starting DigitalSuite EnterpriseConnect Agent

In Windows, start RunMyProcess DigitalSuite EnterpriseConnect Agent in Windows services. To start the application through command line, see Starting the EnterpriseConnect Agent in the RunMyProcess documents.

Starting the JDBC Adapter

Start the JDBC Adapter from runAdapter.bat. Once the Adapter is running, you can access the application through the agent address (e.g. 127.0.0.1:8080). Below is an example executing the command in Windows.

Once the DigitalSuite EnterpriseConnect Agent and JDBC Adapter are running, access http://localhost:(specified-port-number)/ through your browser to open the page shown below.

Check the availability of the JDBC Adapter using tools such as Postman or cURL. Here, we use Postman to send the HTTP POST request.

Configure the RequestHeader as follows:

Configure the RequestBody as follows:

If the JDBC.config file contains credential information, sqlUsername and sqlPassword can be left empty. If you are not sure of the table name, you can retrieve the list of tables using the request SELECT * FROM sys_tables

The request is successful if the Status is 200 and the Body contains SingleStore data in JSON format.

Connect to SingleStore through DSEC Agent in DigitalSuite Studio

Create a DigitalSuite Studio project and then create a Provider in the project.

• URL: The URL for accessing JDBC Agent (e.g. http:localhost:8080/)
• Authentication Scheme: Login/password
• Login: The value from agent.user in the application.properties file
• Password: agent.password in the application.properties file
• Secured: Checked
• Use DigitalSuite EnterpriseConnect: Checked
• With domain: The value from agent.domain in application.properties file

Next, create a Connector in the Provider.

• Connector URL: Leave this empty
• Architecture: REST/XML-RPC
• Method: POST
• Result format: JSON
• Accept media type: application/json
• Character set: Automatic
• Content: Same as the Request body used in the JDBC Adapter
• Content type: application/json

The JSON data we used as the Request body in JDBC Adapter:

{ "protocol":"JDBC", "data":{ "DBType":"SingleStore", "sqlUsername":"", "sqlPassword":"", "sqlStatement":"SELECT * FROM Orders" } }

Open Launch Test to perform the test. The test is successful if SingleStore data is shown in Result on the right pane.

Now you can use SingleStore data in RunMyProcess DigitalSuite Studio through DSEC.
