SAP ASE connection

SAP ASE connection

To access your data in SAP ASE, create a connection asset for it.

SAP ASE is a relational model database server. SAP ASE was formerly Sybase.

Supported versions

SAP Sybase ASE 11.5+, 16.0+

Create a connection to SAP ASE

To create the connection asset, you need these connection details:

  • Database name You don't have to specify the database. With no database specified, you can import metadata from every database that is available for that connection.
  • Hostname or IP address
  • Port number
  • Username and password
  • SSL certificate If required by the database server.

For Private connectivity, to connect to a database that is not externalized to the internet (for example, behind a firewall), you must set up a secure connection.

Choose the method for creating a connection based on where you are in the platform

In a project
Click Assets > New asset > Connect to a data source. See Adding a connection to a project.
In a catalog
Click Add to catalog > Connection. See Adding a connection asset to a catalog.
In a deployment space
Click Import assets > Data access > Connection. See Adding data assets to a deployment space.
In the Platform assets catalog
Click New connection. See Adding platform connections.

Next step: Add data assets from the connection
