Databricks ODBC Driver

  • Artikkel

Azure Databricks provides an ODBC driver that enables you to connect participating apps, tools, clients, SDKs, and APIs to Azure Databricks through Open Database Connectivity (ODBC), an industry-standard specification for accessing database management systems.

This article and its related articles supplement the information in the Databricks ODBC Driver Guide, available online in PDF format and in your ODBC driver download’s docs directory.

Note

Azure Databricks also provides a JDBC driver. See Databricks JDBC Driver.

The process for using the ODBC driver is as follows:

  1. Download and install the ODBC driver, depending on your target operating system. See Download and install the Databricks ODBC Driver.

  2. Gather configuration settings to connect to your target Azure Databricks compute resource (an Azure Databricks cluster or a Databricks SQL warehouse), using your target Azure Databricks authentication type and any special or advanced driver capabilities. See:

  3. Store your gathered configuration settings as an ODBC Data Source Name (DSN) or as a DSN-less connection string, as follows:

    Whether you use a DSN or DSN-less connection string will depend on the requirements for your target app, tool, client, SDK, or API.

  4. To use your DSN or DSN-less connection string with your target app, tool, client, SDK, or API, see Technology partners or your provider’s documentation.
