You can now query information from the tables exposed by the data source connection. You should receive a 'Connected' message after DBeaver has detected the DSN, along with details about the driver if the connection is successful. It will be automatically added to the JDBC URL as well.

In the Database/Schema field, enter the DSN name ( CData Redshift Source by default).In the 'Connect to a database' window, select ODBC and click Next.Open the DBeaver application and in the Database menu, select the New Database Connection option.This configuration will allow string types to be mapped to SQL_VARCHAR and prevent SQL_WVARCHAR types from being displayed as NULL.Ĭonnecting to the Redshift ODBC Data Source in DBeaver On the Configuration tab for the cluster, copy the cluster URL from the connection strings displayed.įinally, set the ' Map To WVarchar connection property to False in the DSN Configuration window for the driver.On the Clusters page, click the name of the cluster.You can obtain the Server and Port values in the AWS Management Console: Password: Set this to the password you want to use to authenticate to the Server.User: Set this to the username you want to use to authenticate to the Server.Or, leave this blank to use the default database of the authenticated user. Database: Set this to the name of the database.Port: Set this to the port of the cluster.Server: Set this to the host name or IP address of the cluster hosting the Database you want to connect to.To connect to Redshift, set the following: See the 'Getting Started' chapter in the Help documentation for a guide to using the Microsoft ODBC Data Source Administrator to create and configure a DSN.

This is also the last step of the driver installation. You can configure the DSN using the Microsoft ODBC Data Source Administrator. If you have not already done so, provide values for the required connection properties in the data source name (DSN). With built-in dynamic metadata querying, you can manage and analyze Redshift data. When you issue complex SQL queries from DBeaver to Redshift, the driver pushes supported SQL operations, like filters and aggregations, directly to Redshift and utilizes the embedded SQL engine to process unsupported operations (often SQL functions and JOIN operations) client-side.

The CData ODBC drivers offer unmatched performance for interacting with live Redshift data in DBeaver due to optimized data processing built into the driver.

This article shows how to manage Redshift data with visual tools in DBeaver like the query browser. The CData ODBC Driver for Redshift enables access to live data from Redshift under the ODBC standard, allowing you work with Redshift data in a wide variety of BI, reporting, and ETL tools and directly, using familiar SQL queries.
