JDBC for DCM

Hi there,

 

When connecting to data sources using DCM - could we please add the ability to make JDBC connections?

 

see:

https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Engine-Works/JDBC-Connections-in-Alteryx/ba-p/968782

 

As mentioned in these threads - JDBC is very common in large enterprises - and in many cases is better supported by the technology teams / developer community and so is much easier to make a connection.    Added to this - there are many databases (e.g. DB2) where JDBC connections are just much easier 

 

Please could you add JDBC connections to the DCM tooling?

 

Thank you

Sean
