SQL Database
The connector itself can be started without any mandatory configuration for the SQL Database, but to later query a database, this database has to be setup.
Technical Account
It is recommended to create a dedicated technical user on the database for the connector. How to create a user depends on the respective database and is not covered by this documentation.
JDBC Driver
To query a database of your choice a matching JDBC driver has to be installed on the connector. This can be done by placing the respective jar file under $INSTALL_DIR → config → resources and restarting the connector if it is already running. Jar files can usually be downloaded from the maven central repository.
