Using Informatica With Apache Ignite
Overview
Informatica is a cloud data management and data integration tool. You can connect Informatica to Ignite through the ODBC driver.
Connecting from Informatica PowerCenter Designer
You need to install the 32-bit Ignite OBDC driver to connect an Ignite cluster with the Power Center Designer. Use the following links to build and install the driver:
Then do the following:
-
Select the
Sources
orTargets
menu and chooseImport from Database…
to import tables from Ignite. -
Connect to the cluster by choosing
Apache Ignite DSN
as the ODBC data source.
Installing Ignite ODBC on an Informatica Service Node
Refer to the Building on Linux and Installing on Linux instructions to install the Ignite ODBC on an Ignite service node.
Informatica uses configuration files referenced by the $ODBCINI
and $ODBCISTINI
environment variables
(Configure the UNIX environment for ODBC). Configure
the Ignite ODBC driver and create a new DSN as shown below:
[ApacheIgnite]
Driver = /usr/local/lib/libignite-odbc.so
Description = Apache Ignite ODBC
Address = 192.168.0.105
User = ignite
Password = ignite
Schema = PUBLIC
[ApacheIgnite]
Driver = /usr/local/lib/libignite-odbc.so
To check the ODBC connection, use the ssgodbc.linux64
utility included in the Informatica deployment, as show below:
<INFORMATICA_HOME>/tools/debugtools/ssgodbc/linux64/ssgodbc.linux64 -d ApacheIgnite -u ignite -p ignite -v
If the unixODBC or Ignite ODBC libraries are not installed in the default directory - /usr/local/lib
, add them to LD_LIBRARY_PATH
and then check the connection, like so:
UNIXODBC_LIB=/opt/unixodbc/lib/
IGNITE_ODBC_LIB=/opt/igniteodbc/lib
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<UNIXODBC_LIB>:<IGNITE_ODBC_LIB>
<INFORMATICA_HOME>/tools/debugtools/ssgodbc/linux64/ssgodbc.linux64 -d ApacheIgnite -u ignite -p ignite -v
Configuring Relation Connection
Choose Connections > Relational..
to show the Relational Connection Browser.
Select the ODBC type and create a new connection.
