Overview
Java database connectivity (JDBC) is a Java-based data access technology.
Use Snaps in this Snap Pack to:
Select, insert, update, and delete records in a database.
Create and remove databases based on the database type
The JDBC Snap Pack enables seamless integration and data connectivity with diverse databases through JDBC (Java Database Connectivity) technology. This Snap Pack supports DCL commands (Grant and Revoke).
Generic JDBC - Select: Retrieves data from a SQL database by executing a SQL SELECT statement/query.
Generic JDBC - Update: Updates data in a SQL database by executing a SQL UPDATE statement/query.
Generic JDBC - Insert: Inserts data into a SQL database by executing a SQL INSERT statement/query.

Info
This Snap Pack only supports DML (Data Manipulation Language) operations, specifically create, alter, insert, and select, when using the AWS Athena database.
Athena JDBC Driver 1.x versions are deprecated, and the Generic JDBC Snaps are incompatible with the Athena JDBC 1.x drivers. Hence, we recommend you to use Athena JDBC Driver 2.x or later when connecting to the Athena database using the Generic JDBC Snaps.
Prerequisites
Appropriate permissions to perform CRUD operations on the database.
The Snaplex should have access to database IP and Port.
Timestamp format must match.
A JDBC driver and .jar files must be installed and configured for the appropriate database to make a successful JDBC connection. The JDBC driver for each type of database you want to connect to may contain typically one .jar file or in some cases multiple .jar files.
Contact your database vendor to get the appropriate driver. Additionally, there are third-party companies that sell commercial JDBC drivers.
Supported Versions
This Snap Pack is tested against the following databases:
The Generic Database Account now supports the SSH Tunneling connection. You can now encrypt the network connection between your client and the database server, ensuring a highly secure connection.
