tRedshiftConfiguration properties for Apache Spark Batch

Property type

Either Built-In or Repository.

Built-In: No property data stored centrally.

Repository: Select the repository file where the properties are stored.

Select the Redshift driver version to be used between Driver v1 or Driver v2.

Host

Enter the endpoint of the database you need to connect to in Redshift.

Port

Enter the port number of the database you need to connect to in Redshift.

The related information can be found in the Cluster Database Properties area in the Web console of your Redshift.

For further information, see Managing clusters console.

Username and Password

Enter the authentication information to the Redshift database you need to connect to.

To enter the password, click the [...] button next to the password field, enter the password in double quotes in the pop-up dialog box, and click OK to save the settings.

Database

Enter the name of the database you need to connect to in Redshift.

The related information can be found in the Cluster Database Properties area in the Web console of your Redshift.

For further information, see Managing clusters console.

The bucket and the Redshift database to be used must be in the same region on Amazon. This could avoid the S3ServiceException errors known to Amazon. For further information about these errors, see S3ServiceException Errors.

Schema

Enter the name of the database schema to be used in Redshift. The default schema is called PUBLIC.

A schema in terms of Redshift is similar to a operating system directory. For further information about a Redshift schema, see Schemas.

Additional JDBC Parameters (field)

Specify additional JDBC properties for the connection you are creating. The properties are separated by ampersand & and each property is a key-value pair. For example, ssl=true & sslfactory=com.amazon.redshift.ssl.NonValidatingFactory, which means the connection will be created using SSL.

This option is only available when you select Driver v1 from the Driver version drop-down list or when you select Driver v2 from the Driver version drop-down list with Use String JDBC parameters selected.

Additional JDBC Parameters (table)

Specify JDBC properties in table rows.

To specify a JDBC property, add a row in the table by clicking the plus button on the bottom of this table, enter the property name in the Key column, and then enter the property value in the Value column.

This table is available when you select Driver v2 from the Driver version drop-down list and clear Use String JDBC parameters option.

S3 configuration

Select the tS3Configuration component from which you want Spark to use the configuration details to connect to S3.

You need drop the tS3Configuration component to be used alongside tRedshiftConfiguration in the same Job so that this tS3Configuration is displayed on the S3 configuration list.

S3 temp path

Enter the location in S3 in which the data to be transferred from or to Redshift is temporarily stored.

This path is independent of the temporary path you need to set in the Basic settings tab of tS3Configuration.

Usage rule

This component is used with no need to be connected to other components.

You need to drop tRedshiftConfiguration alongside the other Redshift related subJobs to be run in the same Job so that the configuration is used by the whole Job at runtime.

Since Redshift uses S3 to store temporary data, you need to drop a tS3Configuration component alongside tRedshiftConfiguration in the same Job so that the S3 configuration is used by the whole Job at runtime.

This component, along with the Spark Batch component Palette it belongs to, appears only when you are creating a Spark Batch Job.

Note that in this documentation, unless otherwise explicitly stated, a scenario presents only Standard Jobs, that is to say traditional Talend data integration Jobs.

Spark Connection

This connection is effective on a per-Job basis.
