About the Simba Couchbase JDBC Driver 1.0.11

The Simba Couchbase JDBC Driver is used for direct SQL and N1QL access to Couchbase Server, enabling Business Intelligence (BI), analytics, and reporting on Couchbase-based data. The connector efficiently transforms an application’s SQL query into the equivalent form in N1QL. The connector interrogates Couchbase Server to obtain schema information to present to a SQL-based application. Queries, including joins, are translated from SQL to N1QL.

The Simba Couchbase JDBC Driver complies with the JDBC 4.2 data standard. JDBC is one of the most established and widely supported APIs for connecting to and working with databases. At the heart of the technology is the JDBC connector, which connects an application to the database. For more information about JDBC, see Data Access Standards on the Simba Technologies website: https://www.simba.com/resources/data-access-standards-glossary.

This guide is suitable for users who want to access data residing within Couchbase Server from their desktop environment. Application developers might also find the information helpful. Refer to your application for details on connecting via JDBC.
