The CData ADO.NET Provider for Spark SQL implements the SparkSQLProviderFactory class to enable you to write generic data access code to Spark SQL through the ADO.NET base classes.

Creating Data Access Objects with SparkSQLProviderFactory

The following sections show how to use the SparkSQLProviderFactory class to create objects like SparkSQLConnection, SparkSQLCommand, and SparkSQLDataAdapter in a generic way.

Register and Configure DbConnections

Register the provider to the configuration context and define the DbProviderFactory and DbConnection objects. See Creating DbConnections for a guide.

Querying Using DbCommands

Executing DbCommands describes how to use an existing DbProviderFactory and DbConnection object to execute queries to Spark SQL.
