Connecting to databases
The following database sources are supported in Qlik Talend Data Integration. Data moved to the target platform is kept up-to-date using CDC (Change Data Capture) technology, or with scheduled reloads of the entire source data. When working with Data Movement gateway, CDC occurs in real time. When working without Data Movement gateway, CDC occurs according to a user-defined schedule.
In certain use cases, when configuring the connection to your source database, you also need to select which Data Movement gateway to use to access the source. If your use case does require a Data Movement gateway, make sure that a Data Movement gateway has been set up for accessing the selected data source, and that the required driver is installed on the Data Movement gateway server. Note that Data Movement gateway is not supported with a Qlik Talend Cloud Starter subscription and might be optional with other subscriptions, depending on your use case and data source.
