Manage Visual Data DiscoveryData Sources
This applies to: Visual Data Discovery
Symphony can connect to a wide array of data stores—from modern databases such as Hadoop, Search, Streaming, and NoSQL, to traditional stores like SQL-based stores.
To use the data from a data store in a Symphony visual, you must first create connection to it and then create a data source configuration for it. The following topics describe how to maintain your data source configurations.
Note: Symphony supports only underscores and dashes in data store field names. No other special characters or white space are supported. If your data store uses special characters other than underscores and dashes in field names, please remove them before attempting to create a data source configuration.
Note: You cannot save a data source with an invisible field, if the invisible field is referenced in a visual (charted or used in filters and keysets).
Data source configurations are managed from the Sources page.
For information about how Symphony caches data, see How Symphony Caches Data. For information on ways you can manipulate the data received from your data store, see Manipulate Data in the Symphony Data Store.
For information on configuring the time bar or search bar defaults, including the default refresh rates, for your data source, see Configure Time Bar Defaults and Configure Search Box Defaults.
