How to Connect to Your Data on Dataiku Online

Supported connections

Dataiku Online allows you to connect to multiple sources of data as read-only sources or read-and-write storage.

Note

A (read-only) Data Source will be used to inform Dataiku how it can access data stored externally: Dataiku remembers the location of the original source datasets. This is read-only, no data is stored or modified in the original system.You typically use these datasets as the entry (left) of your flow.

A (read-and-write) Data Storage will be used not only to allow Dataiku to read the data but also to create new datasets (write) and, in SQL Data Storage, perform in-database computation thus improving performance.

From Dataiku Online, you can connect to the following :

Type	Read / Data Sources	Read and Write / Data Storage
Snowflake	X	X
Azure Synapse	X	X
Google BigQuery	X	X
Amazon Redshift	X	X
