Automated Continuous Tally Replication to Vertica



Use CData Sync for automated, continuous, customizable Tally replication to Vertica.

Always-on applications rely on automatic failover capabilities and real-time data access. CData Sync integrates live Tally data into your Vertica instance, allowing you to consolidate all of your data into a single location for archiving, reporting, analytics, machine learning, artificial intelligence and more.

Configure Vertica as a Replication Destination

Using CData Sync, you can replicate Tally data to Vertica. To add a replication destination, navigate to the Connections tab.

  1. Click Add Connection.
  2. Select the Destinations tab and locate the Vertica connector.
  3. Click the Configure Connection icon at the end of that row to open the New Connection page. If the Configure Connection icon is not available, click the Download Connector icon to install the Vertica connector. For more information about installing new connectors, see Connections in the Help documentation.
  4. After the connected is added, enter the Basic connection properties:
    • Connection Name: Enter a connection name of your choice.
    • Server: Enter the host name or IP address of the Vertica database.
    • Port: Enter the port for Vertica (5443 by default). This property is optional.
    • User: Enter the username of the authenticating Vertica database user.
    • Password: Enter the password of the authenticating Vertica database user.
    • Database: Enter the name of the database hosted on the Vertica Server.
  5. Once connected, click Create & Test to create, test and save the connection.

You are now connected to Vertica and can use it as both a source and a destination.

NOTE: You can use the Label feature to add a label for a source or a destination.

In this article, we will demonstrate how to load Tally data into Vertica and utilize it as a destination.

Configure the Tally Connection

You can configure a connection to Tally from the Connections tab. To add a connection to your Tally account, navigate to the Connections tab.

  1. Click Add Connection.
  2. Select a source (Tally).
  3. Configure the connection properties.

    Set the following connection properties to connect to Tally Instance:

    • Url: Set this to the URL for your Tally instance. For example: http://localhost:9000.
  4. Click Connect to Tally to ensure that the connection is configured properly.
  5. Click Save & Test to save the 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, navigate to the Task tab in the Job, click Add Tasks, choose the table(s) from the list of Tally tables you wish to replicate into Vertica, and click Add Tasks again.

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 with the help of SQL queries.

Schedule Your Replication

Select the Overview tab in the Job, and click Configure under Schedule. You can schedule a job to run automatically by configuring it to run at specified intervals, ranging from once every 10 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 Tally data to Vertica.

Run the Replication Job

Once all the required configurations are made for the job, select the Tally table you wish to replicate and click Run. After the replication completes successfully, a notification appears, showing the time taken to run the job and the number of rows replicated.
