Connecting to a DWS Data Source

Overview

ROMA Connect can use the DWS data source for creating data integration tasks or data APIs. Before using the DWS data source, you need to connect it to ROMA Connect.

Use the PostgreSQL data source to connect to a DWS database. (The DWS data source is to be unreleased and thus not recommended.)

Prerequisites

Each connected data source must belong to an integration application. Ensure that an integration application is available before connecting a data source, or create one first.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the ROMA Connect console. On the Instances page, click View Console next to a specific instance.
  2. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Data Sources. In the upper right corner of the page, click Access Data Source.
  3. On the Default tab page, select DWS and click Next.
  4. Configure the data source connection information.
