No description available [API reference]

Instructions

Spark Thrift Server from Power BI, SQL Server Linked Server via ZappySys Data Gateway, Crystal Reports, SSRS, Azure Data Factory, and other ODBC tools.

  1. Start Spark Thrift Server or note the existing host and HS2 port (default 10000).
  2. Download the standalone Hive JDBC JAR (the wizard does this). Do not mix a partial Hadoop classpath.
  3. Create a user if the cluster uses auth; otherwise leave user/password empty.
  4. After Finish, replace the host (e.g. MyHostName) on the DSN Main UI.
  5. Finish the wizard. Then click Test Connection on the DSN Main UI (the wizard does not run Test Connection).
  6. Done. You can query from C#, Python, PowerShell, and ODBC apps.
