Using Basic Authentication

If your HBase deployment supports authentication, then the Simba HBase ODBC Driver can authenticate the connection using a user name and a password.

If your HBase deployment supports HTTPS, then the Simba HBase ODBC Driver can authenticate the connection through HTTPS using a user name and a password.

To configure basic authentication:

1. Set the AUTHTYPE property to 1.
2. Set the UID property to an appropriate user name for accessing the HBase server.
3. Set the PWD property to the password corresponding to the user name you provided above.
