Creating a new remote source in SAP HANA using SQL

You can also create a remote source using SQL statement as below −

CREATE REMOTE SOURCE Source_Name
ADAPTER “odbc”
CONFIGURATION FILE ‘property_orcl.ini’
CONFIGURATION ‘DSN=oral_DSN_Name’
WITH CREDENTIAL TYPE ‘PASSWORD’
USING ‘user=username;password=password′;

In this SQL statement- <adapter_name> can be as per remote data source and take these values- TDODBC, HIVEODBC, ASEODBC, IQODBC and ODBC.

In above statement, <connection_info_string> is used to specify the connection information for data source where you need to mention the DSN name for your ODBC remote source system. You have to create a System DSN/User DSN to access the data source using ODBC connection.

To open SQL console, right click on Remote Source → Open SQL Console.
