SQL Express on Alteryx Server

[dYoast]

I have a need to utilize a SQL database to write output from a workflow.  I would like to put a SQL Express database on the same system as the Alteryx Server.

Currently, Alteryx is on D drive and the OS is on C drive.  I would put the SQL Express on the C drive as well.

Has anyone done something similar?  Would this create any problems with the Alteryx Server?

Hi @dYoast I guess you just need to install de ODBC Drivers for SQL SERVER.

I do not recommend installing any databases on the same machine as the Alteryx server.

@carlosteixeira  - That is kind of what I expected, but it never hurts to get some verification.
