Lakebase - CData Cloud

Overview

CData Cloud offers access to Lakebase across several standard services and protocols, in a cloud-hosted solution. Any application that can connect to a SQL Server database can connect to Lakebase through CData Cloud.

CData Cloud allows you to standardize and configure connections to Lakebase as though it were any other OData endpoint or standard SQL Server.

Key Features

  • Full SQL Support: Lakebase appears as standard relational databases, allowing you to perform operations - Filter, Group, Join, etc. - using standard SQL, regardless of whether these operations are supported by the underlying API.
  • CRUD Support: Both read and write operations are supported, restricted only by security settings that you can configure in Cloud or downstream in the source itself.
  • Secure Access: The administrator can create users and define their access to specific databases and read-only operations or grant full read & write privileges.
  • Comprehensive Data Model & Dynamic Discovery: CData Cloud provides comprehensive access to all of the data exposed in the underlying data source, including full access to dynamic data and easily searchable metadata.

CData Cloud

Getting Started

This page provides a guide to Establishing a Connection to Lakebase in CData Cloud, as well as information on the available resources, and a reference to the available connection properties.

Connecting to Lakebase

Establishing a Connection shows how to authenticate to Lakebase and configure any necessary connection properties to create a database in CData Cloud

Accessing Data from CData Cloud Services

Accessing data from Lakebase through the available standard services and CData Cloud administration is documented in further details in the CData Cloud Documentation.

CData Cloud

Establishing a Connection

Connect to Lakebase by selecting the corresponding icon in the Database tab. Required properties are listed under Settings. The Advanced tab lists connection properties that are not typically required.

Connecting to Lakebase

To connect to Lakebase, set these properties:

  • DatabricksInstance: The Databricks instance or server hostname, provided in the format instance-abcdef12-3456-7890-abcd-abcdef123456.database.cloud.databricks.com .
  • Server: The host name or IP address of the server hosting the Lakebase database.
  • Port (optional): The port of the server hosting the Lakebase database, set to 5432 by default.
  • Database (optional): The database to connect to after authenticating to the Lakebase Server, set to the authenticating user's default database by default.

Authentication Schemes for Lakebase

Lakebase supports two types of OAuth-based authentication schemes for calling workspace-level APIs: OAuthClient and OAuthPKCE.

OAuthClient

OAuthClient uses the OAuth client credentials grant type. This authentication scheme requires you to perform additional configuration on your service principal in order to connect, as described in Setting Up OAuthClient Authentication.

Authentication is handled via the OAuth Client Credentials flow. This flow does not involve direct user authentication; rather, it uses credentials that apply only to the application itself. The CData Cloud uses the service principal itself to authenticate with the associated permissions being defined in the service principal.

Since no embedded OAuth credentials are provided, specifying the OAuthClient authentication scheme requires you to perform extra configuration of your service principal, as described in Setting Up OAuthClient Authentication.

Set these configuration parameters:

  • AuthScheme: OAuthClient.
  • OAuthClientId: The client ID (also known as the consumer key) that was assigned when you configured the service principal. This ID is required to identify the application to the OAuth authorization server during authentication.
  • OAuthClientSecret: The client secret (also known as the application secret or consumer secret) that was assigned when you configured the service principal. This confidential value is used to authenticate the application to the OAuth authorization server.

OAuthPKCE

OAuthPKCE uses the OAuth code grant type with PKCE (Proof Key for Code Exchange) to guard against cross-site request forgery and authorization code injection attacks.

In this authentication scheme, authentication is handled via the use of a temporary code that the client exchanges for an access token. The code itself is obtained from the authorization server, where the user can see what information the client is requesting, and can either approve or deny the request.

Set these configuration parameters:

  • AuthScheme: OAuthPKCE.
  • User: The authenticating user's user ID.

Authenticating to Lakebase

Once you have set the configuration parameters required to connect to Lakebase, and the configuration parameters required for your chosen form of authentication, you can authenticate to Lakebase as described in the following sections.

Transferring OAuth Settings

  1. On a device with a browser, connect using the instructions in the Desktop Applications section. After connecting, tokens are saved to the file path in OAuthSettingsLocation. The default filename is OAuthSettings.txt.

  2. On the headless machine:
    1. Copy the OAuth settings file to the machine.
    2. Set the following properties:
      • OAuthSettingsLocation: Make sure this location grants read and write permissions to the driver to enable the automatic refreshing of the access token.

After setup, the driver uses the stored tokens to refresh the access token automatically. No browser or manual login is required.

CData Cloud

Setting Up OAuthClient Authentication

Setting Up OAuthClient Authentication

Lakebase supports the OAuth 2.0 standard, which allows service accounts to access Lakebase resources directly without requiring any specific user to grant access The Cloud facilitates this OAuth exchange to obtain and refresh access tokens on the service principal's behalf.

Note: To learn more about managing OAuth connections in Lakebase, see "Authorize unattended access to Databricks resources with a service principal using OAuth" in the Databricks documentation.

Process Summary

Setting up OAuthClient authentication entails the following steps:

  1. Creating and configuring a new service principal
  2. Assigning permissions to the service principal
  3. Creating an OAuth secret for the service principal

Create the Service Principal

To create a new service principal in a Databricks Lakebase workspace:

  1. As a workspace admin, log in to the Databricks Lakebase workspace.
  2. At the top bar of the workspace, click your username.
  3. Select Settings.
  4. Click the Identity and access tab.
  5. Next to Service principals, click Manage.
  6. Click Add service principal.
  7. At the search box, click the drop-down arrow.
  8. Select Add new.
  9. Enter a name for the new service principal.
  10. Click Add.

The service principal is added to both your workspace and the Databricks Lakebase account.

For further information, see Add service principals to your account.

Assign Permissions

To assign the necessary permissions to the new service principal:

  1. To open the details page of the new service principal, click its name.
  2. On the Configurations tab, check the box next to each entitlement that you want your service principal to have for this workspace.
  3. To save the new entitlements, click Update.
  4. On the Permissions tab, grant access to any Databricks users, service principals, and groups that you want to manage and use this service principal.

For further information, see Manage roles on a service principal.

Create an OAuth Secret

Before you can use OAuth to authorize access to your database resources, you must first create an OAuth secret. The OAuth secret is used to generate OAuth access tokens for authentication.

OAuth secrets have a maximum lifetime of two years. A service principal can have up to five OAuth secrets.

As either an account admin or a workspace admin:

  1. At the new service principal's details page, in the Developer Service Principal section, click the Secrets tab.
  2. Under OAuth secrets, click the Generate secret button.
  3. Enter the desired lifetime for the secret in days, up to a maximum of 730 days (two years). The admin console displays updated details about the new service principal, including the OAuth secret and the Client ID (which is the same as the service principal's application ID).
  4. Record the Secret and Client ID for later use. The secret is only revealed once, to be sure to save this information in a safe place.

Note: To learn more about managing OAuth connections in Lakebase, see "Enable or Disable OAuth" in the Databricks Lakebase documentation.

CData Cloud

SSL Configuration

Customizing the SSL Configuration

To enable TLS, set UseSSL to True.

With this configuration, the Cloud attempts to negotiate TLS with the server. The server certificate is validated against the default system trusted certificate store. You can override how the certificate gets validated using the SSLServerCert connection property.

To specify another certificate, see the SSLServerCert connection property.

Client SSL Certificates

The Lakebase Cloud also supports setting client certificates. Set the following to connect using a client certificate.

  • SSLClientCert: The name of the certificate store for the client certificate.
  • SSLClientCertType: The type of key store containing the TLS/SSL client certificate.
  • SSLClientCertPassword: The password for the TLS/SSL client certificate.
  • SSLClientCertSubject: The subject of the TLS/SSL client certificate.

CData Cloud

Firewall and Proxy

Connecting Through a Firewall or Proxy

Set the following properties:

  • To use a proxy-based firewall, set FirewallType, FirewallServer, and FirewallPort.
  • To tunnel the connection, set FirewallType to TUNNEL.
  • To authenticate, specify FirewallUser and FirewallPassword.
  • To authenticate to a SOCKS proxy, additionally set FirewallType to SOCKS5.

OAuth

This section provides a complete list of the OAuth properties you can configure in the connection string for this provider.


PropertyDescription
OAuthClientIdSpecifies the client ID (also known as the consumer key) assigned to your custom OAuth application. This ID is required to identify the application to the OAuth authorization server during authentication.
OAuthClientSecretSpecifies the client secret assigned to your custom OAuth application. This confidential value is used to authenticate the application to the OAuth authorization server. (Custom OAuth applications only.).
ScopeSpecifies the scope of the authenticating user's access to the application, to ensure they get appropriate access to data. If a custom OAuth application is needed, this is generally specified at the time the application is created.
CData Cloud

OAuthClientId

Specifies the client ID (also known as the consumer key) assigned to your custom OAuth application. This ID is required to identify the application to the OAuth authorization server during authentication.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property is required in two cases:

  • When using a custom OAuth application, such as in web-based authentication flows, service-based authentication, or certificate-based flows that require application registration.
  • If the driver does not provide embedded OAuth credentials.

(When the driver provides embedded OAuth credentials, this value may already be provided by the Cloud and thus not require manual entry.)

OAuthClientId is generally used alongside other OAuth-related properties such as OAuthClientSecret and OAuthSettingsLocation when configuring an authenticated connection.

OAuthClientId is one of the key connection parameters that need to be set before users can authenticate via OAuth. You can usually find this value in your identity provider’s application registration settings. Look for a field labeled Client ID, Application ID, or Consumer Key.

While the client ID is not considered a confidential value like a client secret, it is still part of your application's identity and should be handled carefully. Avoid exposing it in public repositories or shared configuration files.

For more information on how this property is used when configuring a connection, see Establishing a Connection.

CData Cloud

OAuthClientSecret

Specifies the client secret assigned to your custom OAuth application. This confidential value is used to authenticate the application to the OAuth authorization server. (Custom OAuth applications only.).

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property (sometimes called the application secret or consumer secret) is required when using a custom OAuth application in any flow that requires secure client authentication, such as web-based OAuth, service-based connections, or certificate-based authorization flows. It is not required when using an embedded OAuth application.

The client secret is used during the token exchange step of the OAuth flow, when the driver requests an access token from the authorization server. If this value is missing or incorrect, authentication fails with either an invalid_client or an unauthorized_client error.

OAuthClientSecret is one of the key connection parameters that need to be set before users can authenticate via OAuth. You can obtain this value from your identity provider when registering the OAuth application.

Notes:

  • This value should be stored securely and never exposed in public repositories, scripts, or unsecured environments.
  • Client secrets may also expire after a set period. Be sure to monitor expiration dates and rotate secrets as needed to maintain uninterrupted access.

For more information on how this property is used when configuring a connection, see Establishing a Connection

CData Cloud

Scope

Specifies the scope of the authenticating user's access to the application, to ensure they get appropriate access to data. If a custom OAuth application is needed, this is generally specified at the time the application is created.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

Scopes are set to define what kind of access the authenticating user will have; for example, read, read and write, restricted access to sensitive information. System administrators can use scopes to selectively enable access by functionality or security clearance.

When InitiateOAuth is set to GETANDREFRESH, you must use this property if you want to change which scopes are requested.

When InitiateOAuth is set to either REFRESH or OFF, you can change which scopes are requested using either this property or the Scope input.

AllowPreparedStatement

Prepares (compiles) a query statement before it is executed.

Data Type

bool

Default Value

true

Remarks

If True, Lakebase compiles every query statement before it is executed. If you are executing the same query repeatedly, leaving AllowPreparedStatement set to True should improve performance, since preparing the query avoids recompiling the same query over and over. However, prepared statements also require the Cloud to keep the connection active and open while the statement is prepared.

If AllowPreparedStatement is set to False, statements are parsed each time they are executed. This can be useful if you are executing many different queries only once.

BrowsePartitions

By default, the provider exposes the super table and its partitions by metadata. You may hide sub partitions by setting this property to false.

Data Type

bool

Default Value

true

Remarks

This property has an effect on the server with version 10 and later.

CData Cloud

FetchResultSetMetadata

This field sets whether the provider retrieves metadata pertaining to the schema and table name for resultset columns returned by the server.

Data Type

bool

Default Value

false

Remarks

By default, the Cloud will not request that the server provides detailed information about resultset columns like the table name or schema name. It requires issuing additional metadata queries via Cloud , and it may affect query performance essentially in some scenarios. Consider setting this property to True when you need such detailed descriptive information for the resultset columns.

CData Cloud

InsertMode

Specifies the method to use when inserting bulk data. By default, the DML mode is used.

Possible Values

DML, CSVStream

Data Type

string

Default Value

"DML"

Remarks

There are only two valid options: DML and CSVStream.

When InsertMode is set to DML, the Cloud uses INSERT SQL statements to upload bulk data.

When this property is set to CSVStream, the Cloud employs the bulk upload with the COPY FROM STDIN command.

CData Cloud

MaxRows

Specifies the maximum number of rows returned for queries that do not include either aggregation or GROUP BY.

Data Type

int

Default Value

-1

Remarks

The default value for this property, -1, means that no row limit is enforced unless the query explicitly includes a LIMIT clause. (When a query includes a LIMIT clause, the value specified in the query takes precedence over the MaxRows setting.)

Setting MaxRows to a whole number greater than 0 ensures that queries do not return excessively large result sets by default.

This property is useful for optimizing performance and preventing excessive resource consumption when executing queries that could otherwise return very large datasets.

CData Cloud

Timeout

Specifies the maximum time, in seconds, that the provider waits for a server response before throwing a timeout error.

Data Type

int

Default Value

30

Remarks

The timeout applies to each individual communication with the server rather than the entire query or operation. For example, a query could continue running beyond 60 seconds if each paging call completes within the timeout limit.

Timeout is set to 60 seconds by default. To disable timeouts, set this property to 0.

Disabling the timeout allows operations to run indefinitely until they succeed or fail due to other conditions such as server-side timeouts, network interruptions, or resource limits on the server.

Note: Use this property cautiously to avoid long-running operations that could degrade performance or result in unresponsive behavior.

CData Cloud

TimeZone

Notifies the server about the timezone on the client with a standard SET TIMEZONE query when a connection is being opened.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

The server stores time with timezone and timestamp with timezone in UTC. When the server is accepting a value without timezone specified explicitly, it uses the TimeZone for the respective adjustment to UTC.

If the TimeZone property is not set, the provider uses the client's local timezone. Setting this property can be useful when you need the server to convert to a specific timezone, which is different from the client's local timezone.

NSIS 3.10

Copyright (C) 1999-2025 Contributors THE ACCOMPANYING PROGRAM IS PROVIDED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS COMMON PUBLIC LICENSE ("AGREEMENT"). ANY USE, REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION OF THE PROGRAM CONSTITUTES RECIPIENT'S ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT.

1. DEFINITIONS

"Contribution" means:

a) in the case of the initial Contributor, the initial code and documentation distributed under this Agreement, and b) in the case of each subsequent Contributor:

i) changes to the Program, and

ii) additions to the Program;

where such changes and/or additions to the Program originate from and are distributed by that particular Contributor. A Contribution 'originates' from a Contributor if it was added to the Program by such Contributor itself or anyone acting on such Contributor's behalf. Contributions do not include additions to the Program which: (i) are separate modules of software distributed in conjunction with the Program under their own license agreement, and (ii) are not derivative works of the Program.

"Contributor" means any person or entity that distributes the Program.

"Licensed Patents " mean patent claims licensable by a Contributor which are necessarily infringed by the use or sale of its Contribution alone or when combined with the Program.

"Program" means the Contributions distributed in accordance with this Agreement.

"Recipient" means anyone who receives the Program under this Agreement, including all Contributors.

2. GRANT OF RIGHTS

a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Contributor hereby grants Recipient a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free copyright license to reproduce, prepare derivative works of, publicly display, publicly perform, distribute and sublicense the Contribution of such Contributor, if any, and such derivative works, in source code and object code form.

b) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Contributor hereby grants Recipient a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free patent license under Licensed Patents to make, use, sell, offer to sell, import and otherwise transfer the Contribution of such Contributor, if any, in source code and object code form. This patent license shall apply to the combination of the Contribution and the Program if, at the time the Contribution is added by the Contributor, such addition of the Contribution causes such combination to be covered by the Licensed Patents. The patent license shall not apply to any other combinations which include the Contribution. No hardware per se is licensed hereunder.

c) Recipient understands that although each Contributor grants the licenses to its Contributions set forth herein, no assurances are provided by any Contributor that the Program does not infringe the patent or other intellectual property rights of any other entity. Each Contributor disclaims any liability to Recipient for claims brought by any other entity based on infringement of intellectual property rights or otherwise. As a condition to exercising the rights and licenses granted hereunder, each Recipient hereby assumes sole responsibility to secure any other intellectual property rights needed, if any. For example, if a third party patent license is required to allow Recipient to distribute the Program, it is Recipient's responsibility to acquire that license before distributing the Program.

d) Each Contributor represents that to its knowledge it has sufficient copyright rights in its Contribution, if any, to grant the copyright license set forth in this Agreement.

3. REQUIREMENTS

A Contributor may choose to distribute the Program in object code form under its own license agreement, provided that:

a) it complies with the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and

b) its license agreement:

i) effectively disclaims on behalf of all Contributors all warranties and conditions, express and implied, including warranties or conditions of title and non-infringement, and implied warranties or conditions of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose;

ii) effectively excludes on behalf of all Contributors all liability for damages, including direct, indirect, special, incidental and consequential damages, such as lost profits;

iii) states that any provisions which differ from this Agreement are offered by that Contributor alone and not by any other party; and

iv) states that source code for the Program is available from such Contributor, and informs licensees how to obtain it in a reasonable manner on or through a medium customarily used for software exchange.

When the Program is made available in source code form:

a) it must be made available under this Agreement; and

b) a copy of this Agreement must be included with each copy of the Program.

Contributors may not remove or alter any copyright notices contained within the Program.

Each Contributor must identify itself as the originator of its Contribution, if any, in a manner that reasonably allows subsequent Recipients to identify the originator of the Contribution.

4. COMMERCIAL DISTRIBUTION

Commercial distributors of software may accept certain responsibilities with respect to end users, business partners and the like. While this license is intended to facilitate the commercial use of the Program, the Contributor who includes the Program in a commercial product offering should do so in a manner which does not create potential liability for other Contributors. Therefore, if a Contributor includes the Program in a commercial product offering, such Contributor ("Commercial Contributor") hereby agrees to defend and indemnify every other Contributor ("Indemnified Contributor") against any losses, damages and costs (collectively "Losses") arising from claims, lawsuits and other legal actions brought by a third party against the Indemnified Contributor to the extent caused by the acts or omissions of such Commercial Contributor in connection with its distribution of the Program in a commercial product offering. The obligations in this section do not apply to any claims or Losses relating to any actual or alleged intellectual property infringement. In order to qualify, an Indemnified Contributor must: a) promptly notify the Commercial Contributor in writing of such claim, and b) allow the Commercial Contributor to control, and cooperate with the Commercial Contributor in, the defense and any related settlement negotiations. The Indemnified Contributor may participate in any such claim at its own expense.

For example, a Contributor might include the Program in a commercial product offering, Product X. That Contributor is then a Commercial Contributor. If that Commercial Contributor then makes performance claims, or offers warranties related to Product X, those performance claims and warranties are such Commercial Contributor's responsibility alone. Under this section, the Commercial Contributor would have to defend claims against the other Contributors related to those performance claims and warranties, and if a court requires any other Contributor to pay any damages as a result, the Commercial Contributor must pay those damages.

5. NO WARRANTY

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE PROGRAM IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Each Recipient is solely responsible for determining the appropriateness of using and distributing the Program and assumes all risks associated with its exercise of rights under this Agreement, including but not limited to the risks and costs of program errors, compliance with applicable laws, damage to or loss of data, programs or equipment, and unavailability or interruption of operations.

6. DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER RECIPIENT NOR ANY CONTRIBUTORS SHALL HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOST PROFITS), HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE USE OR DISTRIBUTION OF THE PROGRAM OR THE EXERCISE OF ANY RIGHTS GRANTED HEREUNDER, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

7. GENERAL

If any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of the terms of this Agreement, and without further action by the parties hereto, such provision shall be reformed to the minimum extent necessary to make such provision valid and enforceable.

If Recipient institutes patent litigation against a Contributor with respect to a patent applicable to software (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit), then any patent licenses granted by that Contributor to such Recipient under this Agreement shall terminate as of the date such litigation is filed. In addition, if Recipient institutes patent litigation against any entity (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Program itself (excluding combinations of the Program with other software or hardware) infringes such Recipient's patent(s), then such Recipient's rights granted under Section 2(b) shall terminate as of the date such litigation is filed.

All Recipient's rights under this Agreement shall terminate if it fails to comply with any of the material terms or conditions of this Agreement and does not cure such failure in a reasonable period of time after becoming aware of such noncompliance. If all Recipient's rights under this Agreement terminate, Recipient agrees to cease use and distribution of the Program as soon as reasonably practicable. However, Recipient's obligations under this Agreement and any licenses granted by Recipient relating to the Program shall continue and survive.

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute copies of this Agreement, but in order to avoid inconsistency the Agreement is copyrighted and may only be modified in the following manner. The Agreement Steward reserves the right to publish new versions (including revisions) of this Agreement from time to time. No one other than the Agreement Steward has the right to modify this Agreement. IBM is the initial Agreement Steward. IBM may assign the responsibility to serve as the Agreement Steward to a suitable separate entity. Each new version of the Agreement will be given a distinguishing version number. The Program (including Contributions) may always be distributed subject to the version of the Agreement under which it was received. In addition, after a new version of the Agreement is published, Contributor may elect to distribute the Program (including its Contributions) under the new version. Except as expressly stated in Sections 2(a) and 2(b) above, Recipient receives no rights or licenses to the intellectual property of any Contributor under this Agreement, whether expressly, by implication, estoppel or otherwise. All rights in the Program not expressly granted under this Agreement are reserved.

This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of New York and the intellectual property laws of the United States of America. No party to this Agreement will bring a legal action under this Agreement more than one year after the cause of action arose. Each party waives its rights to a jury trial in any resulting litigation.
