The sections below summarize using a supported database or cloud data warehouse with an ArcGIS Server site.
Configure clients and create a database connection file
The following topics provide instructions on how to install and configure client software and create a database connection file. Keep in mind that you must install a release of the client software that is compatible with the release of the database to which you want to connect.
- Connect to Amazon Redshift from ArcGIS
- Connect to Dameng from ArcGIS
- Connect to Db2 from ArcGIS
- Connect to Google BigQuery from ArcGIS
- Connect to Oracle from ArcGIS
- Connect to PostgreSQL from ArcGIS
- Connect to SAP HANA from ArcGIS
- Connect to Snowflake from ArcGIS
- Connect to SQL Server from ArcGIS
- Connect to Teradata from ArcGIS
Test the connection
To test a connection to a database or enterprise geodatabase, publish a service using data residing in the database.
To test a connection to a cloud data warehouse, do the following:
- Add a data store item that registers the database connection file with the hosting server.
- Define a query layer for a table in the cloud data warehouse.
- Publish a service from the query layer.
If you encounter problems with your connection, consult the server logs for more information. To learn more about server logging, see Work with server logs.
