Introduction

This guide provides an overview of the implementation configuration for establishing a direct access connection (ODBC/JDBC) to the CCC Data Warehouse for authorized California Community Colleges (CCC) districts and colleges.

...

With the drive selected, a sample endpoint will autofill in the URL field. This endpoint needs to be modified, and several other fields need to be filled out. See the example below.

...

The important essential fields to configure are as follows:

  • Name: The name for this the connector that you will reference later to access this database again. This is for your use only, so make it clearly descriptive for the database you are accessing. will be accessing. Identifying the environment in the name is highly recommended. (For example, if you are going to query the COCI DB, something like `DWH-COCI` might be appropriate. Identifying the environment in the name is highly recommended.)

  • URL: Where to reach the database. Edit the auto-filled string in this field with the custom endpoint (example shown below).

The value of <misScope> can be derived from the prefix of your Data Warehouse Direct user name which is in the format of <misScope>_<firstInitial><lastName> i.e. 000_jdoe, where 000 represents the MIS scope value. An example of the resulting schema for accessing tables within the Application database = dw_apply_read_000.
