Create a load job to load data from a database

Use the Informix® TimeSeries Plug-in for Data Studio to create a load job that loads time-based data from a database into existing time series instances.

Before you begin

Loading data from databases has the following additional requirements:
  • The data is in a database, including databases on database servers other than Informix®.
  • Connectivity information for the database server that contains the source data. The database server must support the Informix® or DRDA® connectivity protocols. The connection is created through JDBC.

Procedure

  1. Open the appropriate cheat sheet by choosing Help > Cheat Sheets, expand the TimeSeries Data category, choose Loading from a Database, and click OK.
  2. Follow the instructions in the cheat sheet to create the load job.
